Personally, I don’t like drug, it always gives me anxiety just hearing I’d be using any drug as medication. It was really so bad that just having the idea of taking drugs makes me feel better almost immediately. For me, drugs were always my last resort whenever I feel sick because I have the belief that I will get better if I could eat well, rest well and also drink a lot of water to flush out those toxins in my body. Well, that worked for me because I hardly fall very sick.
I have never had any reason to use any drugs that have had a negative effect on me. I will say I was fortunate in that regards because of my fear for taking drugs. Just the thought of it was enough to make me whole, so I hardly ever think of using drugs when I have a slight headache or when I feel feverish. In worst cases, when I know that this sickness is a bit persistent, I always prefer taking injections because like I said, drugs are not something I find easy to swallow, chew or even drink.
But then, there was a time I stayed with my grandma, I had to deworm. My grandma went out that day and came back with this red color drug and asked me to chew it. I felt so disgusted by the look and smell of the drug that I even threw up even before chewing it. The drug has one of the most powerful taste that I have ever tasted because it stayed in my mouth almost through out the day. I hated that day so much that it is always hard for me to forget it.
I also remember another time I was so sick and my dad was really worried. He wasn’t even doing too well financially but then he still had to get me some drugs to help me get better. I didn’t like swallowing drugs at all then because I always threw it out, so my dad took his time to grind it for me to drink. Immediately the drug touched my mouth, I vomited and that was how I wasted the drugs. My dad was so pained but then all he did was to give me another drugs again and I still ended up vomiting it.
At that point, my dad was frustrated and I received a very good beating. To others, they were sad my dad was beating me but to me, I was very happy because my dad said he wasn’t going to give me any drugs again, lol. That was my worst medication with drug experience but then it marked my beginning to discovering the fact that I actually do not need medications all the time to get better, what I need most times is good food, fruits, rest and water. I remember there was a whole year I didn’t take any drugs and I didn’t die, lol.
Because of that experience, I always prayed to God to help me not to fall sick and be answered my prayers and for the days when I get really sick, I always opt for injections and that helped me get better. So like I said, taking drugs is not what makes me feel better, it is the thought of taking it that makes me feel better. So once I’m sick, all I need is someone telling me to go and get drugs and my body’s white blood cells will start working at optimum rate, lol.
I have come to realize that the major reason why I fall sick is due to stress, so I always try to take enough water, rest when I feel like resting and also eat very well while using fruits as supplements. Now I’m doing well health wise I have also started doing some home workouts to also help my heart beat better and normal. Like I said, taking drugs is the last resort for me and I’d also advise the same for others too except those who have chronic illnesses and are under the doctors supervision.
But I won’t advise you to take drugs for every headaches or pain you feel, you can do some exercises or rest or even drink water, take a cold bath and do a history of other things and just feel better.
Well, that’s it for my response to the topic, it’s a pleasure having you stop by ❤️.
