I remembered tonight but forgot the previous two nights. I hope I don't have breakthrough. I'm normally very good about taking my meds.

You should be fine since all meds have a half life.
Try not to worry

I think it will be OK as long as it doesn’t become a habit. Can you set a timer on your phone or something to remind you?

I thought abilify was activating for me. I think it's zapping me of energy. Tonight is the first time I am taking it at night so I guess I will find out.

I understand. I am bad about remembering to take my Protonix (stomach med, not related to MI). But I am supposed to to it first thing in the morning, ideally 30 minutes before anything else and/or eating. I usually do remember it at some point before dinner each day but rarely ever first thing. Used to help to put it by the coffee maker but that doesn’t seem to work any more. God knows I never want to go through the pain and ordeal of a perforated ulcer again, and I still can’t remember to take this stomach med when I am supposed to.

Keep us updated, especially if you do notice breakthrough symptoms. However, I am with Christina, meds usually have long half lives so you should be ok as long as you stay back on track.

Forgot again. It's so hard to take with dinner. Darn it. Empty stomach mean I'd throw it up anyway.

I assume you are talking about Latuda? It was hard for me to remember to take it too, I think it was the food restriction. I would eat and remember it two hours later. I think the half life on Latuda is like eighteen hours.
I sometimes have issues with remembering to take my afternoon Buspar and that has resulted in a few missed dosages and that medication has one of the smallest half lives I have ever seen which is two hours.

I took it anyway. Hope I don't get sick. I ate 3 hours ago.
