When I'm sick (fever/cold), I refuse to take medicine

Any sort of medicine. I'm suffering but I feel like my body should heal itself. It deserves no mercy. It makes some part of me sad/upset but the parent in me doesn't care

I used to be like that and also with pain until I learned that pain killers not only block pain but also reduce inflammation. Now I don't hesitate to take one if I believe that it could help with that part.

When I am sick, I never take pills. I use natural medicine to aid my body in its own healing. A chamomile tea, some garlic tea or garlic soup, a veggie soup, some fruits, bananas are very soothing, simple things that can have some smooth impact and allow the body to do its work.

@being I rely on natural medicine too, but my definition could vary from yours a bit 🥴

reminds me of a guy going to the doctor and he was diagnosed with the flu

"take 2 aspirin every day, drink, chicken soup, warm baths, cough syrup and get plenty of rest and you'll feel better in a week"

"that's a lot of work doc, what if I don't do that?"

"oh, then you'll feel better in 7 days"

@Pretzel We know this here about a cold. 😆 A treated cold passes in 7 days and untreated in a week.

well, if you have a fever that gets above 103, at leasttake a lukewarm bath so you dont get brain damage
Ppl acting like it's medieval times when the life expectancy was 30 is wild to me
