My Mood: Points: 3,608.44 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 3,608.44 | Remembering? I walked out of the house without my pills today.
I'm barely remembering to take 2 a day, how am I going to get up to 4 a day?
What tricks do you have for remembering???

What helps me is that every night before I go to bed, I put all my meds for the day in a small container (washed out film case, mini Tupperware bowl, ziploc baggie, or pill case) and put it in my purse. That way when I'm rushing around in the morning (I leave for work at 5:15 am), I know it's already in my purse and I just have to remember to take it throughout the day...that's another story! LOL HTH!
