Having trouble staying med compliant

Why is taking meds regularly such problem for me????
Anyone out there with tips or resources (online chats, literature, etc) to help me stay more compliant with my meds? Was looking to find a Med buddy/peer" that would check in to make sure that I have taken them and just to talk to about HIV and related issues, but the area where I live is pretty sparce with available people. I basically am dealing with this with minimal input from others (partner, doctor & family).
I Have been on several regimes which have failed in the past due to numerous missed doses which meant several really bad trips to the hospital. My options are dwindling. I have the knowledge of what going off meds is like, but just can't seem to get the consistency part right - It sucks going to bed everyday taking meds and waking up only to have to take more.
My doctor has referred me to support groups, but I don't feel that they are the way for me to go - I don't do well in a group setting - This is why I was trying to find something online chat/support group or one or two people to talk to which may help ease me into a more formal group setting. Any input would be very useful - Thanks
