Bipolar Disorder Medications: Tip from a Reader

68816ap198Jennifer 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.”

“Reaching out to help one person at a time-Jennifer”

Thanks to Jennifer! I am going to do this. I have also thought of setting an alarm on my phone. Please leave your comments if you have any other ideas! I had NO idea these pill boxes even existed!

    Hello,

    That’s good idea for those who are hearing
    But what about for those who are deaf?

    Thanks

    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?
