Whilst my comment was obviously tongue in cheek, the principle actually works. So for example, next time you take your tablet, do something out of the ordinary, or silly, like pinch yourself on the arm, lick your mouse, doesn't matter what really, as long as it's a bit odd or strange. So you will remember doing the weird/funny thing and by relation, will remember why you did it, to remind you that you've taken the tablet.

It's the things you do often, actions you repeat and do almost on auto pilot that we tend to forget, taking pills at regular times is a common one, locking the door at night, then wondering if we locked it when we get upstairs is another. So punctuating these repetitive moments with an out of the ordinary action helps us to remember them.
This sounds like a road to OCD to me...

****! me too. And I'm not being sarcastic!

Oh yeah. The act of writing things down helps me remember them. Once I make a note, I rarely have to look at it again. The fact that I bothered to write it down makes me rememeber it.

For med's, you can get them supplied in bubble packs, for each day and part thereof.
I got the chemist to pack them like that for the mother when she was getting confused about her epilepsy med's.

It's getting on my nerves. I'll be typing a sentence and think of a website I want to look at and then have forgotten what it was when I've finished the sentence. Stuff like that. I always seem to be thinking of about 10 things at once which my doctor blames on it but it's still really annoying.

I couldn't remember if I had already taken my vitamin tablet 10 minutes earlier yesterday.

Anyone got any good remedies? Other than thinking really slowly.
Have a little research about blue-green algae and Omega 3 food additives (totally natural - which is of high importance to me), I've started using it about almost a year ago and what it does really is amazing. I'm sure you'll feel a difference.
