Struggling with Medication Adherence

Hi there! You can call me Boomy. I'm struggling with taking my medicine every day. I view it as a chore and when I'm stressed, I feel I can put it on the back burner. How do I combat this? Any advice is appreciated. :)

Pill containers, alarms, and puting them where I am when i take them helped me a lot.

Hi!! I take my pills in the morning, at supper, and then before I go to bed. I've been taking pills since I was little, but it has become part of my everyday routine. I think if you make it part of your routine and take them at the same time every day (or around the major parts of your day), that will help! Making everyday things part of my routine helps me mindlessly do it and then I don't forget 😊
