Does anyone else have this problem? I just forget whether I’ve taken it or not. And if I wait too long to see if it kicks in, everything gets delayed… I bought a small weekly pill organizer, and it works, but I’m not a big fan of it. Plus, I often forget to refill it, which brings me back to the original problem. How do you all handle this? Any ideas?

I use a pill organizer. It works most of the time. Also, I have 2 reminders on my phone to take my meds. Every Sunday evening I get the reminder to refill the pill organizer. Still, sometime I forget the refill or to take my meds. But I didn't find a method that works better for me.
I have 2 weekly pill organizers, so I only have to refill my meds once every 2 weeks! And I have it set up to where I refill it on my most laid back days, Sundays! And I have it so it runs out on Sunday afternoons, so I don't even have to refill it first thing in the morning. This has worked really well for me!
Now that I’m taking way less meds, it’s slightly easier to remember. However, I now get this annoying ‘frozen motivation’. Like I see the meds there and know I’ve not taken them but just don’t have the energy or will to actively take them. Instead I just look at them, weigh up how I might feel if I miss them, and then decide not to bother to take them at all and just wait until the next day. AWFUL!
