… because I comment more times in a single day than I normally do over weeks.
(Hoarding meds because I need to make an appointment for a refill, but I can’t make myself do that when unmedicated and always get distracted the rare days I am. Hey, if it were rational it’d be considered a personality quirk, not a mental illness.)

I’m bad about getting refills (thanks, crippling social anxiety combined with meds that are a controlled substance and require frequent doctor check-ins). When I’m down to a week or so left of a 30-day supply, I stop taking them and save the last few for when I desperately need to do something. I don’t think I’ve had a refill since July and still have two left.
I make poor life decisions.
Be sure to practice FIFO (First In First Out). I do this with some of my meds. I’ve got one with a 1 year supply (I have my own bad habits), but I’m always taking less than a year old meds as I use the oldest ones first.
