I had this too - still do to a certain extent. The only thing that helps me is concentrating on breathing slowly in and out while I'm brushing, but even then I'm sometimes gagging.

Hiya
just wanted to say i do this every morning and night since having my two dds (the first one 13 years ago!!) so I don't hold out much hope of ever improving. Sorry, just wanted to let you know you are not alone.
