Jennifer left the following suggestion on one of my ‘I missed my Lamictal!” posts. It’s such a good one, I put it here!
“What I do so I don’t miss my meds is my pill box has an alarm on it and goes off when I need to take my meds just in case I forget. I’ve never missed a dose in years. Hope this helps in some small way.”

Thanks to Jennifer! I am going to do this. I have also thought of setting an alarm on my Blackberry – but it only lets me do one at a time. Please leave your comments if you have any other ideas!

Hello,
That’s good idea for those who are hearing
But what about for those who are deaf?
Thanks
Cassie
Try taking your meds at the same time every day. Once you train yourself to do this you will feel like you are forgetting something if you don’t do it. if deaf try alarm with a flashing light or vibration?
