Countering pill-swallowing anxiety. - March 9th 2019, 08:32 PM

I can't think of titles lately. Thinking of something like "Conquering/Countering pill-swallowing anxiety."

I am thinking of doing an introduction and then paragraphs with different ways to swallow pills like:

Swallow different sized candy. Work your way up to larger.
Put pills in soft foods such as jello, pudding, honey, and then swallow the food.
Try eating, chewing, and then putting the pill in the food on the back of your tongue, then swallowing.
Try putting the pill in water in your mouth. Capsules will float when you touch your head to your chest.
Use guided thoughts for this (will expand later)
Use a pill swallowing aide like a water bottle topper or a pill cup.
Figure out why the anxiety is there.
I think there are some others I can't remember at the moment.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first


The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
