i have been swimming all my life competitive, triathlon and now masters, over the past few months i have choked whilst swimming, usually fly or brst, on one occasion the lifeguard had to help me...i am not terrified of swimming strokes other than free...i also coach so have changed sessions to suit just free
does anyone else do this or is there an underlying condition

You may find that at a certain swimming speed, a "trough" will develop in the water right by your face while swimming freestyle. The trough means you can get air with less head turning. It could be that you are now swimming more slowly than that threshhold speed. It will probably be different for each person; I am guessing about 1 yd/second.
For ***/fly, not sure.
