When I was little I used to believe that if you take medicine when you're not sick, you'll get sick. (Like, if you take headache medicine you'll get a headache, if you take stomachache medicine you'll get a stomachache, etc.) I believed this until I was 11. To this day I'm still terrified of taking medicine when I don't need it. That's probably a good thing!
