Is anybody else afraid to take medicine? Not necessarily anxiety medicine but any kind of medicine? Sometimes I feel like I'm insane because I'm afraid of several factors such as choking on a pill no matter the size, worried that I'll have an allergic reaction even if I've been taking said medicine for a while, the side effects I could experience, and misusing the medicine or doing something wrong. I do face this fear everyday because I have to take nexium for my acid reflux and zyrtec and flonase for my allergies but I still get really anxious after taking these medicines for a good 15 minutes and then calm down realizing that nothing has happened and I'm fine. This is a nonstop cycle and I'm exhausted. Has anyone been able to overcome this?
