I love to backpack and got surprised by how useful having stuff with me was. Now I wear a daypack every day and keep random odd things in it. I have a rain coat, a thin pullover, my medication, a first aid kit, a cpr shield, a water bottle, my workout plan and workout book to record them in, and even a tiny multitool (gerber dime). I sometimes refer to it as my "murse" as a joke (man purse), but I just find having that stuff with me to be incredibly useful.
Do men not usually do this? Where were you leaving your medication before? Did you never bring a water bottle with you?
I'm a woman and one of my biggest stressors is my bag, it hurts my back to carry and I still forget tons of stuff that I need. I don't have a car so I don't have anywhere convenient to leave things when I'm out or at work.
I usually only carried my water bottle. I'd plan most medication to be taken at the end or beginning of the day. My wife recently converted to a Michael Kors backpack purse after years of having an over the shoulder bag and loves it. She says her back is much better with a balanced load instead of just one side.
