Today, I realized that without my birth control pills, I would have no idea what day it is. FML

Or a watch with not only time but the date on it. Far more cheaper.

Eh...... get a job?? That would keep you right... #imawasteofspaceFML

I'm pretty sure 1 doesn't understand the problem. Birth control pills aren't habit forming, just when you're stuck in the same routine you don't remember what day it is. Getting pregnant and/or having a more annoying menstrual cycle wouldn't help!

I figured it was that way for most girls above 15.

80 - That's what I figured. Most women who go on birth control stay on it for years. I was put on the pill when I was fifteen (I was a virgin until eighteen) for health reasons. I'd still be on the pill if estrogen didn't give me migraines - now I'm on the shot. There's no real reason for her to go off of them, not just because of this. I've been disabled for a little over a year, I never know what day it is unless I have something scheduled and my phone reminds me. I'm a bit more in tune in the winter months - I know when the hockey games are, so I usually know what day of the week it is. I don't usually know the date, though.

I'm thinking you don't know what birth control pills are if you think that getting off them will help her remember what day it is. The pill packet has each day written on them (so you know what day to take each one). OP just has crappy memory and can't remember what day it is until she sees it written on her pill packet.

I guess you're not part of the work force, huh?

Im a stay at home mum and i have the same problem. At least OP is being sensible and responsible about her sex life, if that's even why she's taking them. i originally started taking mine because i had really painful periods and the pill helps reduce that. Dont automatically assume she's just a dumb ****.

I agree with you! I take them because I was anemic and had pain like you! People are awful these days to judge!

I don't think that anyone is really concluding that she's a ****.......just maybe should get a calendar or a phone/tv/ computer etc......it's more about the date than anything
