Forgetting that I took a certain medication and spiraling into general shame of being so forgetful.

I regularly see posts on here of people complaining they forget to take adhd medication, or forget they already took it and take it again. Im not medicated for adhd and havent been for years, Im just talking about, say, pain medication. Well, Im still sore from dental work done a couple days ago and still had some hydrocodones left from a visit months ago, plus cramps sooo...yeah Im totally gonna indulge and pop one. Then I forgot. So while Im getting to work on stuff, Im wondering why Im feeling a certain way.

Then I get depressed because that is my whole life. Forgetting I did things, forgetting to do things, because my mind is constantly flipping pages forward so many of my actions dont register.

Has anyone else had to deal with this?
