You are afflicted with a terrible illness, oh no! Is it bad? Likely. Luckily a friend or the local doctor has the treatment for your condition. But what is that? You have no interest in undergoing it despite knowing it will heal you? Why is that? Most people that are sick will wind up taking whatever antidote or treatment they need in a heartbeat. However there are those who for whatever ridiculous reason will turn it down. These reasons may be various, ranging from simply not trusting the treatment, a Greater Need Than Mine, being Afraid of Doctors, to the healing literally harming them. Regardless, they have to take it, even if it means methods like slipping the medicine into food or pinning them down and performing it by force. The alternative can range from prolonged suffering or worst case scenario: a slow, agonizing death. See also Afraid of Needles, Unwanted Revival and Unwanted Rescue. May result in a Mercy Kill if the person would prefer death over treatment. For the inverse, see Withholding the Cure. |

Adventure Time: In "Wizards Only, Fools!", Princess Bubblegum tries to give Starchy medicine for his illness through an injection, but Starchy refuses to take it and insists on having a magic cure instead. After embarking on an All for Nothing quest to Wizard City only to get a literal "Cold Spell", PB decides to just chant some nonsense and inject Starchy with the needle. | |

Divinity: Original Sin II: Mona is implied to be a necromancer (she sells necromancy skill books) and a Death Seeker suffering from a plague. If you somehow heal her Diseased status through game mechanics she turns hostile and tries to kill you, as she deliberately infected herself to see her loved ones again in the afterlife. | |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: After suffering a serious Trauma Conga Line, Sayaka refuses to have her Soul Gem cleansed of its grief because she believes if it goes completely dark, she will die. This turns out to be a VERY BAD IDEA, as not only is she horribly wrong about what will happen, it causes Sayaka to turn into a witch after hitting the Despair Event Horizon. | |

Worm: In her backstory, Emily Piggot suffered severe injuries in a battle with the biokinetic supervillain Nilbog. In particular, both her kidneys were ruined and she now requires dialysis to survive. She lives in the same city as Panacea, a superhero with healing powers who would be quite willing to fix her injuries, but Piggot's experience with Nilbog has given her a phobic hatred of parahumans in general and biokinetics in particular, and she flatly refuses to let Panacea touch her. | |

In The 100, the survivors in Mount Weather are severely vulnerable to the ambient radiation outside the bunker, but they've developed a treatment for those who have been exposed: blood transfusion from captive Grounders, who have evolved an immunity to radiation.

In "Bad Seed" season 11, episode 3 of Supernatural, Rowena casts a special on Castiel that causes him to lose control and attack people like a feral dog. When his sights are set on a defenseless human woman, Dean steps in and tries to stop him. Much like one would expect when rabid angel meets Badass Normal, it's a Curb-Stomp Battle. Later, when Castiel is cured, he guiltily offers to heal Dean's painful looking cuts and bruises. However, Dean refuses, feeling like it is his penance for when he beat up Castiel and nearly killed him with an angel blade while under the influence of the demonic Mark of Cain in "The Prisoner" season 10, episode 22. | |

In Dragon Ball Z Abridged, when Goku starts having a heart attack during his fight with Android 19, it's revealed he never took the medicine Trunks gave him to prevent exactly that from happening. When asked why, Goku replies he never took it because it was grape flavored and he doesn't like grapes due to an allergy to them. He tends to turn purple and start oozing out a purple liquid, according to Tortoise. | |

1000 Ways to Die: One story involves a woman who became a geophage (a condition where the individual develops a desire to eat dirt) out of extreme stress. Unfortunately, she chose to eat the dirt from her eco-warrior neighbour's garden which was laced with his own waste matter. She later developed a serious case of E. Coli and never bothered to see a doctor, brushing it off as a mild flu, dying from it several days later. It didn't help that she kept eating it even after getting sick and never even tried putting two and two together about it either. | |

When the Planet Express crew enter Fry's body, Leela stops them just before they can expel the worms, saying he is better this way. Fry eventually disposes of them himself anyway and reverts his body to normal, thinking Leela loved the worms more than him. He was wrong. | |

Earth's Children: Creb refuses to let Iza remove his rotten tooth despite it causing him lots of pain and discomfort, out of fear of the procedure (in fairness to Creb, the series is set in the Stone Age so medical treatments are cruder and riskier compared to modern medicine). He does ask her to lance it and give him herbal treatments to reduce his pain, but as Iza warns him, this isn't a long-term solution and only prolongs his suffering. Iza and Ayla finally talk Creb into letting them take out the tooth. | |

Prior to the beginning of Runaways (Rainbow Rowell), both Gert and Victor chose to die rather than allow any chance of causing the Bad Future in which Victor became the supervillain Victorious and Gert was the only one left to try and stop him. In the beginning of the series, Chase mistakenly believes that Gert would have wanted to live and thus goes back in time to prevent her death. He also reactivates Victor, because he doesn't know the circumstances under which Victor died, and thus doesn't know that he wanted to die. Naturally, both characters chew him out when they find themselves alive again, and the series shows them both engaging in self-destructive behaviour. | |

Family Guy: In "Livin' On A Prayer", the child of a Christian Scientist couple becomes very sick with a treatable cancer, but his parents refuse to take him to a doctor because they do not believe in modern medicine or doctors. Lois becomes so worried she goes as far as to kidnap the child and get him to a hospital against their wishes. The couple change their minds when Lois reasons with them that maybe cures to treat illnesses like cancer came from God answering prayers for miracles and that they should not be taken for granted even if faith in God is believed to be a form of medicine. In "Our Idiot Brian", Brian develops a benign brain tumor which decreases his IQ. When given a chance to have it removed, he turns it down because he prefers being an idiot, much to the dismay of Stewie. At the end of the episode, Stewie tricks Brian into getting his tumor removed, with Brian complaining that he is back to his old, alcoholic loser self. |

In Sword Art Online, Diabel refuses a healing potion after being severely injured while leading the raid to kill the first boss. He did this due to guilt; he had manipulated the raid's strategy to improve the chances of his receiving a bonus item for dealing the final hit to the boss. Because Sword Art Online is The Most Dangerous Video Game, this kills Diabel in real life too. | |

In Star Trek: The Next Generation, Worf is paralyzed in an accident. Dr. Crusher offers him a standard treatment that will, over time, bring back some of his mobility. But being a Klingon, he'd rather commit ritual suicide than live as a cripple. Fortunately, the week's guest star has invented a radical but risky new treatment that could restore him completely, if it doesn't kill him first. | |
