I hate taking my meds...

I don't know, maybe i'm just weird but I really do hate taking my meds. I mean I am only 18, I shouldn't have to take three pills twice a day. And I am constantly thinking about it too, did I remember to take them? did i take all of them? I just hate it. I guess i am just wondering if other people feel like that?

Recent Comments on this Discussion

i know exactly how you feel. im a few years younger then you are and I have to take two pills a day twice a day. the doctor tryed to double it now he wants to change it. and i agree with you it is a hassel and it is stressfull when we forget it but we cant let it get us down. i mean believe me i hate these things last night mom almost had to force me to take it. but we have to think instead of " if i dint have these pills i could be like a normal teen, instead we should think "with these pills i can be a normal teenager and not have a siezure, we just heve to go throught the few sideffects and were fine. so keep goin and stay strong. and know that your not alone. and praise god for pills. lol :)
