38. Mum Hacks: 'I Forgot My ADHD Medication Again.' The Pill Box Is Right There.

A nurse who gives out meds all day found May's script in her glove box in July. Still in the chemist bag.

She bought the pill box with the days on the lid. Put it next to the toothbrush, like everyone says. It worked for two weeks. Then one morning she looked straight at it, and she was already in the car.

The verdict she landed on: careless with the thing that matters most.

It might not be that. Your brain files anything that never moves as background. The fridge humming. The shirt on your back. The pill box that's sat by the toothbrush for a fortnight. The filter doesn't check how much something matters. It only checks whether it changed since yesterday.

This Mum Hacks episode is about why 'next to' fades, why 'in the way' doesn't, and a quick check for when a hack that was working quietly stops.
