They: It’s a highly addictive drug.
Me: SHIT, I forgot again.

You can even set it up to require photo evidence of you taking your meds.
Thank you this seems so useful!
Here’s my secret effective tip: have blood pressure issues that cause palpitations when you forget your meds for a couple hours. Who needs alarms when you can feel like shite for the rest of the day?!
The real struggle is staying focused during the few seconds between turning off my alarm and getting my meds. One little maneuver could cost 51 years
I’m just going to do this first…
Don’t mark the alarm done till it’s in your mouth. Snooze the alarm 5 min if you must
This is my trick for everything that needs to get done. Never turn it off before it’s done
I’ve managed multiple times to forget if I took them or not during the snooze.
You just need a reminder to check your reminders.
I genuinely have a reminder to check my reminders 😂
I’ve got 2 daily alarms, 15 minutes apart and still manage to occasionally miss taking them.
I keep forgetting to take my meds this week.
they say to get one of those daily pill calendar things, but thats too much work to fill all the time.
There are Sundays where the thought of having to spend 5 minutes filling up my pills for the week kept me in bed for hours.
I’ve got two, so I have a whole week of time to keep forgetting to refill it.
The fact I saw this just after realising I forgot to set my timer for my ADHD med and have no clue when it’s next due 😅
What happened 5d ago? Do that again
Accidentally dismissed the alarm.
I just made it my routine.
Can’t forget if it’s essential.For any future Ops that wants to know my schedule:
Wake up
Make breakfast and brew tea
Eat while watching a bit of media
Take meds
Get ready for work
Go work.You have a routine? Man, just be nice. I forget to blink if I’m too distracted.
What worked for me was taking my meds the same moment I put on deoderant. That way I can double check whether I took them by smelling my armpit before I leave the house.
i can absolutely drop out of a routine randomly
Couple days off sick or on holiday: “I’ve never met this routine before in my life.”
Methylphenidate poutine
Had poutine yesterday.
Quite tasty (but I need to do it with my ingredients. The stall was a bit stingy)
