You may have a little cheerier day. It is forgetting to take them that you don’t want to do! That hurts!

You'll be fine. Just don't overdo it today. You might be tempted because you have a bit more energy than you've had for a while. If you overdo it, you'll pay for it in the next few days.

Go back to your regular dose tomorrow. (You might also feel a bit zoomy tomorrow Take it easy.)
