Hi musil,
It sounds like there may be more going on than just anxiety and pain. Have you told your doctor about intentionally causing the pain to be worse and about hearing voices that tell you to flush your medicine?
I can understand your fear of meds. I had anxiety for a long time and didn't take anything for it. Was also afraid of getting addicted to something, among other things. After years of suffering, I finally went on medication for anxiety and ended up becoming manic. Found out I was actually Bipolar (along with having anxiety). Just make sure you tell your doc all that's going on so he/she will have the necessary info to help you in the best way and with the proper medication.
Believe me, it is worth it to make the anxiety go away :)
