Argh argh argh what happened to the afternoon?

[ewt]

Came home from walk, had lunch, and.... sat on sofa feeling bleh. Oops.

I've taken my medication now (this is a good idea, generally!) and hopefully will feel better soon. Tomorrow I'll see if I can remember to take it with breakfast. It's weird, I hardly ever forgot to take citalopram but for some reason fluoxetine is easier to forget and two or three times a week I get to mid-afternoon and realise I haven't taken it. This will improve as my routine becomes more routine-like and less random, though.

Immediately? Off to teaching. After that back here (or at least as far as the gym) to wash my hair (it is much needed!) and then off to the Pembury Tavern.

Can you put anything medication related behind a cut or in one of the custom filter things?

I bought one of those pill cases from Muji and I found that it helps a lot. Unfortunately it has six compartments so Saturady and Sunday pills have to share, but on the other hand, it's easy to check if you've taken today's pill (what day is it today? Monday? yep, compartment's empty).

Why on earth would somebody make a pill case with six compartments instead of seven? For those special places where they have six days in the week? :)

My father and brother have had some success with pill cases with a built in alarm. They will beep at you when it's medication time. Not sure if thbat would help though...

If my routine goes to hell I set up a couple of daily-recurring appointments in the PDA so it bleeps at me. When I get a routine back it gets annoying quickly so I delete them but it has been helpful at times.

I never remember to take my pills so I get my phone to beep at me insistently until I take them. 9am & 10pm.

My Nokia only had one alarm, so i had to use my pda *as well* which was a rubbish setup - but the sony-ericsson has 3, which is more helpful :)

Setting up reminders on your laptop/pc/phone/pda is a v.good idea.

Also add calendar entries for important things and add an alarm to remind you (with enough notice) works wonders.

Can do. Any particular reason you want to discuss?

N.B. I don't promise to always remember, but will try.
