Hmm, i used to have this problem.
I'm going to sounds silly saying this but i tried swallowing little pieces of bread (pill sized) which i could do and then just kept trying with pills.

Are they ones you could chew? Or dissolve?
Maybe ask the doctor for liquid meds.

What I do is take a drink first - this wets my lips. Then I take another mouthful of drink but I don't swallow it, I keep it in my mouth, tilt my head back and put the pill in. Then I swallow. I find I don't notice I'm even swallowing a pill.

I don't know if that'd help you fear wise, but it could make them easier to take?

Think about it logicaly - your dad isnt going to hit you again if you dont take it (presumably) and it seems thats hat the fear is off not the tablets. Take them when your alone and calm...

i go with most other views that the fear is not of the tablet its of being hit.

therefore take them calmly on yr own or with a friend that will suport you while u take it.

I started off with baked beans...swallowing them whole and they were soft so it was okay. Then I tired peanuts...I kind of rolled them to the back of my throat and swallowed! Then after a few trys with the pills, I finally got them down. =]]]

Take care x



Do it for those who know you can and for those who think you can’t.

perhaps try to forget that they are in the food that they've been mashed up in?
mash them up in icecream and try to forget that they're in em?
i know it sounds silly, but it might make sense?
