Why would you do one pill at a time? Just put em all in and wash the pills down with a glass of water.

I can't swallow pills without water. They get stuck in the back of my throat.

Yep. I learned I can swallow about 20 pills in one gulp of water. Sorry for all you folks out there that say you can't swallow pills, it's a psychological issue.

It is, but I ain't gonna argue with my brain.

Yeah I had it when I was a kid. For whatever reason my brain just wouldn't allow it to happen and my tongue would grab the pill before I could swallow it. It cause a lot of problems. I don't know what happened and I can't even remember when it happened but one day it was just gone and I've never had an issue swallowing pills since.

it was a trick learned out of nescessity ;-)

yeah, I think it worked because they gave me lots of fluids anyway, I never had a dry mouth or sore throat.
