Some time ago, I mentioned that I was using the Timer function on my phone to help me take my meds on time. Basically, I start the timer when I take my first dose in the morning, it sounds an alarm three hours later, and I respond by resetting the alarm and taking pills. This worked great for about 10 months. But yesterday, I forgot to set the timer when I took my morning pills. But I remembered when I needed to take my next dose, so I took it on time…and AGAIN forgot to start the timer! This time, I didn’t realize my mistake until I was feeling pretty ragged. And so, I finally set the timer…but this time, I forgot to take the damn pills! About half an hour later, I discovered this new mistake, then corrected it by taking the pills and resetting the timer. Three hours later, I got the alarm. So I reset the timer and AGAIN forgot to actually take the pills! Today at lunchtime, it was the same thing: I reset the timer without actually taking the meds!

So, I ask you, does anyone make an alarm clock that will slap me upside the head? Alternatively, have any of you had this problem, and found a good solution? I’m all ears (except for the rest of my body).
