Fear of taking pills
I've been prescribed clindamycin for a tooth abscess. I have a severe phobia aboug taking pills. I research the side effects and I get too scared to take them. I've been panicking practically non stop for over a week because I'm terrified of the infection, but yet I'm also terrified of the side effects of that pill. Help
