Do you find it easy to realize when you need to utilize a prescribed to you PRN dose of a medication? Or are you like me and just go on about your agitation, anxiety, hallucinations, whatever not even remembering you don't have to suffer?

It depends how dissociated I am, or how much psychosis I'm in. If I am more "myself" for lack of a better way to put it, then I can remember about PRN's but if I am caught up in hallucinations and or I am dissociated, then I don't usually remember about them.

I tend to forget to use prn's, then remember after the fact.

I feel more anxious about whether or not to use PRNs than I do if I don't have a PRN prescribed for me. Therefore, I tend to prefer when my doctor just prescribes things that I have to take daily instead of relying on my own judgment about when to take a PRN or not.

I still live with my parents for now and my mom tends to remind me to take it. Without her around I would probably forget it at least some of the time.
