I have that horrible thought several times a day.  I even use a pill case to make sure I can go back and look to verify I took my meds.  However, being bi-polar, if I happen to forget it just once I usually end up going down a deep spiral.  Sometimes I end up only forgetting for a couple of days but most times it ends up being a couple of weeks.  This, of course, throws me into a swing of moods. 

I have been thinking of ways I could make this better and easier to remember.  I came up with a solution but it requires a ton of help.  I need someone who can program, someone who can build electronic devices and then someone to get a patent/market the product.  It would be a grand idea and after running by a few people it would be great for those of us with mental disorders who require meds as well as those in the geriatric community who also forget to take meds. 

Sadly, this will probably all be forgotten within a couple of weeks though – because like all things I do, I get distracted or just give up or can’t get anything accomplished fast enough and never follow through.  It’s a good idea though.  I just have to figure out how not to lose this one.
