When it was my first time taking pills, I had the same reactions as you. But what I did was I popped the pill in my mouth and pretended there was nothing there. I just pretended I was drinking water and voila! My pills are now in my stomach! :)



I started out practicing with candy, M&Ms, Skittles, ect. BUT, if that doesn't work for you, take the pill, wrap it in some food object. (Turkey, Bread, Whatever you have) Make sure it's easy to swallow down, nothing spikey. Slippery foods work good. Put it in your mouth, DO NOT CHEW. And swallow it down. Just trust yourself and be calm. You can also get a can of Ravioli and open one, put the pill in there, close it up, and swallow it. You Will not choke, don't be scared. Goodluck!



Can you tell me why you cant swallow pills exactly? Is it a medical condition or are you just scared of taking them? I'll respond back when you answer this for me. Just add it in the Additional Details by clicking Add.. below your question. Thanks. =]

Until then, taking them is not so bad. Just put some water in your mouth, pop the pill in, and swallow.



Just put the pill in your mouth, and take a drink of water. Don't think about it, just swallow it with the watter as if it weren't there at all.
