    Exactly. Not only do you have to remember to do the thing, you have to remember to dismiss the reminder.

    For remembering my meds, I have an alarm app that only allows me to dismiss it by touching it to an NFC sticker. I put one on my main pill bottle, and just put my new meds into that bottle when I refill.

        Caffeine & addy...hell of a combo. I'm trying to ween off of caffeine because I'm tired of feeling like my heart is about to explode on the days after a 4 hour sleep. Still feels necessary a lot of the time.

        Make sure to take care of your cardiovascular health if that's a habit! It's been hard for me without the gym.

        ...but that's a decent way to remember to take them, esp if your sleep is as fucked up as mine
