Is this bad? Maybe I have it because I'm similar.

Fortunately, I think you'd probably notice if you did. Makes it hella hard to swallow stuff unless you pulverize it to a paste. In my case, some days I can't even swallow things as simple as applesauce and have to just drink high calorie liquids.

Edit: After seeing the rest of your comments in this thread... Yeah, sounds like dysphagia. Dysphagia is a symptom though, not the condition itself. If you've got it, something deeper is wrong. In my case it's likely nerve damage and allergies together.
