It's like I need a baby sitter :(

My mood has really sucked lately. I just went to the bathroom for some pain meds and saw my pill case.

For the last week or so, I haven't added my AD to my pill case. No wonder I'm feeling so off I did this once before, too.

You'd think I could remember to add it with my other pills, right? But no, I forget because it's not in a bottle like the others.

I feel like such a failure right now...I know I'm not, but I could kick myself for doing that.

Hey don't beat yourself up. I didn't take mine for almost a month and I did the same thing. I also forgot to take mine yesterday. So don't beat yourself up. You are still doing well and will continue to do so.

You're not a failure. Maybe you could put the pills in a bottle so you're more likely to remember? Or set a reminder on your phone for the same time every day.

Thanks, Charity...it just bugs me because I can remember all my others except that one. I need to ask DH to help me remember to put it in the pill case, but it makes me feel like a child to be reminded to take my meds.

But I guess an adult would also know when to ask for help, right?

Yeah, next time I get my meds refilled, I'm going to ask for an empty pill bottle or something

Been there. I've also accidently forgotten that I did take my pill, and took it twice in one day. I was moody as hell that day.

*hugs*

I forget to take one of my pills all the time. If it isn't for the morning pill it is the 2 a night that I forget...and I forget to get them refilled also.
Moral of my story, don't beat yourself up about it, and if you need help remembering, ask. My husband has to remind me all the time.

The one pill I have to take daily, I have to have an alarm set on my phone to go off everyday, and it actually says "PILL" because I would otherwise forget. Don't beat yourself up over it.

I have all my pills around my tooth brush so I know to take them. I remember to brush my teeth every day so I should remember my medicine. Its gotten so much a habit to take them BEFORE I brush my teeth. It has helped a lot.

Don't beat yourself up over it. I used to forget to take my pills a lot but I finally set an alarm every night so I could remember to take them.
