Oh my gosh, I was prescribed birth control pills a month ago so I could go on Accutane and I was terrified to take them. I made my boyfriend stay on Skype with me and watch me take them and then he stayed on with me for another hour or two to make sure I was gonna be okay. He puts up with a lot from me and this phobia but he's so sweet about it.

I remember the last medicine my dermatologist prescribed for me was minocycline. It scared me because when he was telling me about the medicine he goes "do NOT take this on an empty stomach, you will puke it up". and that's what set me off. I put them away in my cabinet and never took them.
