| COUNSELOR: | Does the medication make you feel bad? |
|---|---|
| YVONNE: | No, not really. |
| COUNSELOR: | Is it hard to remember to take it? |
| YVONNE: | Yeah. I have a lot of stuff to do, ya know. |
| COUNSELOR: | Yeah, I know what you mean. Ya know, I take a vitamin each day with my lunch. That way, whenever I eat lunch, I know to take the vitamin. They go together. Since I go home for lunch, I keep my vitamins at home on the counter, next to the ‘frig. I also put a reminder in my phone so that at noon, my phone says “Take vitamin.” I think we could work out a system like that for you, something easy that reminds you to take your medication that won't be annoying. |
| YVONNE: | Okay. |
| COUNSELOR: | Let's start by writing this down. |
