Tonsillitis and trouble swallowing
I have been eating nothing but chicken noodle soup blended, lots of water, yougurt, v8, and pudding for the last week because my tonsillitis makes it hard to swallow. First of all I was wondering if that's okay that it's all liquid stuff for a week. Also I'm wondering if after awhile do people forget how much to chew solid foods and swallow them it's an anxiety I have and when this is over I'm kind of scared to go back to solids because I think I forgot but also I think it's just anxiety.

If your symptoms of tonsillitis are relieved and presently if you don't have throat pain then you can definitely start solid foods. You may be just having anxiety for having solid foods. Go ahead and try having solids of your choice
Next Steps
Consult nearby doctor if you continue to have such anxiety
