Any tips on how to remember/be motivated enough to take medication in the morning? I’ve been taking my meds nightly for about 2 years now and I like that because I have a terrible time whenever I have to take something in the morning. But now my doctor wants me to do morning and night meds and I’m stressing out. I know I’m going to forget and rush out the door for work. But she said I’m running out of med options so I have to try this 😬

I have this issue too. Here’s what has helped: set a reminder on your phone or Alexa device or whatever to take your pills when you need to. If there’s more than one pill, organize them into a pill case before the week starts. If you have a bag that you always take with you, have a spare dose of pills that you can take as soon as possible. If you have a place you go to every day, have a spare dose of pills there.

Set it beside your plate on the table or wherever you eat breakfast. Chew some food and then put the pill in your mouth and swallow. Taking a drink after helps.

I ended up getting a stackable pill tower thing that holds a week of meds… I keep it on my nightstand with one of those tiny half-pint water bottles. It took a little while to build up the habit of taking them every morning as soon as I wake up, but with this setup I get it out of the way early, and I can easily see whether I’ve taken the day’s dose yet - each day of the week is a different color, and I rotate them so that the day’s container will be at the top of the stack. It’s sort of like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HY9RX22/
