heatherwitch: I’ve been on up to 35 medications at once, and am now taking some 8 times a day. Here’s some tips and tricks I’ve built throughout the years:Scheduling/remembering:Make a schedule. Write down what you’re taking, when you have to take it, everything.Set alarms.If you have the time, separate them into piles for each session.Make a checklist with all of the times you have to take it, and when you hit certain points, treat yourself to a set thing.

It’s been 6 weeks since I’ve applied and no ..read more
