Your not the only one man, I have a massive fear of pills so I hardly ever take them only for the littlest things

Pills can float so don't tilt your head back, tilt it foward so it can float to the back of your throat

Damn I have this exact issue also, I cannot, even if my life depended on it, swallow a pill 💊 like that.

Dude… I hate capsules 😫😭 I hate taking any pills but especially capsules because I feel like they’re harder to take. I literally just took a capsule and it got stuck so I had to keep drinking water but man it scared me so bad and now I’m scared to take the rest of my pills ugh! 😫

I’ve almost died twice because the pill got stuck in my throat completely blocking my airway. I now have extreme ptsd

Seeing this while having my breakfast, I almost got choked laughing. So much identification 😂😢

I dont think people really understand how strong the gag reflex is. It is a mental thing. These tricks never work and I have just been surviving on pill crushing and gummy bear vitamins 😂

Honestly, I take a big bite of a banana or any food you're eating (not spicy). Chew it up. Stick the pill and just swallow. The food hides the feeling of the pill. Then just a few sips of water after

A small tip for taking *tablets* just split you tablet into half if its too big then put one half in your mouth and quickly take a big gulp of water and swallow immediately as fast as you can and done!!! Dont put the tablet in ur mouth for a very long time as it can melt and start sticking to walls of your mouth...
Note:- split tablet in half only if you notice a line on the tablet do not split every tablet as it would not work then..

I had no problems swallowing pills but once i choked on a candy and now I have the biggest swallowing phobia you can imagine

[McCartney-kqtr]

I’m practicing with Tic-Tacs right now, and I still can’t do it. I ended up crying 😂

[Theautisticgent]
