Hey hun, dont worry - it happens! Take todays now and then carry on as normal, it may take a couple of days but you'll be back to normal soon.

Like Jo said its best to take them at the same time everyday. I used to leave mine on my dressing table next to my brush and take them every morning when I brushed my hair.

As for todaty take it easy and remember you'll be fine soon!

Yup, take todays pill now!  I have a daily pill box - I have lots of meds to take - which is beside the kettle - cos I do like me cuppa! - so I dont forget to take them.  You can get these pill boxes from your local chemists and they are good.  Huge hugs for you sweetie, its not easy, we are all here to support you hunny xxxxx

Yup hun i did that loads.

Just start taking them again now as normal.  It may take a couple of days to get back in the swing of things and for you to feel ok again but you will feel ok again.

Love Trudi.  xx

How about setting an alarm to go off at the same time everyday..other than the usual wake up call lol...should do the trick.

Im using my mobile alarm to go off to remind me when to take my pills...and ive got shedloads of them lol

I used to forget to take mine too, so I wrote "DON'T FORGET TO TAKE TABLETS" on a box that I kept on my fridge. That way, when I got my milk out for my breakfast in the morning, I would remember.

I'm pants at remembering to take mine too, but as soon as I forget I know about it.

Dizzy's idea is good.  Put them somewhere where you will need to look everyday.  That way you can't forget.

I should do that also, instead of hiding them away in the medicine cabinet.
