Breastmilk oversupply

I am having breastmilk oversupply and fast letdown. my baby is gulping fast and choking whenever i feed him. due to heavy milk supply baby feeds only for few minutes and then stops he is unable to feed well. i tried expressing milk before feeding but only after pumping for half hour the force reduces. this is incresing my milk. what should i do. i cry evertime while feeding him after seeing him suffer. nobody understamds my situation i feel depressed always not even able to eat food.

Press your nipple between your index and middle finger, it will decrease the speed and also if you thought that supply is increasing, you can stop the supply after every 5 secs.. it will normalize the pressure
