Reason why having crap-ass short-term memory sucks, #197

"Hmmmm.... have I taken that sleeping pill already or not? *blink, blink* Am I feeling sleepy? Maybe I better take [another] one, just to make sure."

Starting to think I need one of those days-of-the-week med containers.

I should get one of those too, except my inhalers wouldn't fit in it...

You too? *hugs*

I'm taking something that gives horrible withdrawal symptoms when I miss it...and traveling a lot...and yeah. Just got one of those containers; except it's at damselfrog's, or possibly somewhere at MIT by now, and therefore, inaccessible.

*hugs* I use one of those containers. For pretty much the exact same reason.

Sleeping pills have that effect, in particular Ambien. Definitely a good idea to get the pill case. They're only about $7 for multiple-dose-per-day ones (got one for my dad last fall).

That's unfortunate. One would think they'd make accomodations for inhalers, considering how many people use them.

Yikes! Yeah, I find change of location makes my organizational skills even worse, so I can barely remember what I need to take, let alone what I've already taken.

Cause you're smart like that. :)

That actually explains a lot. I'm a bit scared of Ambien from what I've heard, though, and sticking to melatonin.

Will definitely be getting that pill case.
