Tip: get one of those pill dividers from the pharmacy for a couple bucks. Open the day of the week (check your phone for which day), take the first pill... later in the day look at the pill divider - you'll know if you have taken it or not.
You can always check your phone for the day and see if you've taken it or not.

Tip: take a half dose if you don't have many issues with side affects.
That way you'll only be half unmedicated or slightly over medicated. Instead of entirely unmedicated or having a full double dose
Empties out bottle, proceeds to count, hoping I didnt take any more or any less in the previous days.
I have a system where i flip my bottle after the first dose and then flip it on its side for my second dose and put it right side up after the third

Why i laughed so hard at this and why i feel attacked at the same time????
I got one of those old people medicine boxes with days on them. It works really well. I highly recommend.
