Forgot my birth control pills but today was my last active pill. What do I do?

I went on a trip and forgot to pack my birth control. I was supposed to take my last active pill today and start my placebo week tomorrow. I know I don't have to take the placebo pills so that is fine. But what should I do since I'm missing my last active pill? Do I just start my next pack when I normally would next week or start a day early? Or what do I do?? IMPORTANT: Forgot my birth control pills but today was my last active pill. What do I do?

Carry on, take your week break, and then take the missed pill at the start of your next cycle. Taking a 7 day break is fine.

Take a pregnancy test asap!! That's what happens when you miss a pill, automatic pregnancy. Good grief!!!
