I sometimes wonder why they even bother with pills for OC patients at all. Bless your heart. I'm terrible at swallowing them even at the best of times. Big ones ... not gonna happen. I hope the liquid form goes better for you.

Keep on taking care of yourself ... things WILL get better. Maybe slower than you want, maybe not (we can all hope for faster!) ... but they will get better. And we're all here to cheer you on.
