your alarm goes off... go immediately to your pill box... hold the pills clenched in your hand (never lay them down anywhere) until you take them. From the beginning of when the alarm went off, don't cease humming 'my pills, my pills, my pills...' until you finally swallow them

I think the problem is that after a few weeks, it becomes such a habit that you don't even think about it....then suddenly you realize you missed a dose.

Someone advised me to "concentrate on doing it, they try to remember that you concentrated on it".....made perfect sense at the time =)

Man....

¡You all are one impressive group!

I have never forgotten to take a pill of any sort in my life




Though perhaps being recovering alcoholic/addict has something to do with it ...the problem with us includes the tendency to take other people's pills as well ....
