I'm trying to not be angry at myself but it's hard when it's been several days later and I still feel bad. My body is not happy about the double dose and then re-adjusting to the meds again. My sleep is all messed up and I've been sick from messing with klonopin (I assume since I've been sick like that from missing klonopin before). But it was just a mistake and life goes on.

My meds actually are fairly colorful: green, bright orange, bright blue, peach, pink, yellow but the rest are all white. My magnesium and metformin are nearly identical so I have to be really cautious not to mix those up. I've been fortunate in only mixing up one med a couple times; I just always go for broke with all of them .
