The ADHD Planner (Beige)

I absolutely love the content for my particular brand of ADHD. I have used the full focus planner before and what I love about this one is the way it helps me by really specific cues that help me to overcome inertia and to just get started. You can really tell that someone with ADHD created this for the same people. And I REALLY appreciate the 3 different ribbons for bookmarks!The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I don't want to advertise my ADHD to people in my office, on the train or anywhere I'm using it. Personal preference, but it would be great to have a book with less branding, or maybe change from the "ADHD planner" to the actual brand "epic self."

I love this planner so much I emailed the seller when it was unavailable to see if they had anyin a corner of a warehouse I could buy. I love that it gives a couple of ways to break down long term goals and areas to plan them. With ADHD and whatever else impacts how I plan and work, routines REALLY help and there's both a section to make routines AND daily check-offs to mark if you do them or not. Doing stuff at work is much easier than trying to either be productive or meaningfully relax at home, so setting up these routines as cues helps so much. The daily pages are helpful--especially having priorities, places for freeform notes, and a place to note things that worked/things I achieved. With so many ideas of what I can or should do bombarding me constantly, it helps to step back and be mindful of what I DID do. I also love the weekly planning, especially the grid page to mind map in whatever way is useful that week, and the overall schedule/priorities page--I need both the big picture and details. If you don't like the name/having the name on the cover, I found it easy to apply stickers etc.I stalked the listing to see when it would be back when customer service gave me an estimate, so I saw it the day it came back on, and then they also emailed my neurotic self to let me know it was back. Love the planner, love the team behind it.

I like this planner a lot. It's very helpful. Unfortunately, I did not realize it was only 13 weeks when I bought it. I'm unlikely to buy 3 more of these for the year as this was already an expensive planner. Also, having to remember/follow through with buying 3 more planners is also difficult for many of us with ADHD.

This planner is almost perfect but, they need to 1)remove ADHD from the cover and go with an undated format. I ended up buying a book cover which doesn’t fit well.2) I also recommend moving things like weekly review to another section of the book. As an ADHD’er. I don’t always get through everything I put down on my day. So I might be on the same page for 2 days. I need the flexibility to use the pages at my pace.3) Maybe offer a larger version. My day starts at 5:30 am and doesn’t end until 8:00 or 9:00- the block scheduling doesn’t provide enough room to put everything in it.I hope they read this and make some changes. Otherwise, it’s a one and done purchase for me. 😟

This has been all right for me--it at the very least provides me a lot of different paths I can take to organize my life. That said, it leaves a lot to my imagination to figure out how exactly to use it. There are no instructions to tell you what each of the sections is, or how you might use it, which would be really helpful in getting me started and keeping me going.The other half of it is more conceptual--unlike a yearly planner, you've got to fill in the dates yourself. Fall off by a day and you've got a blank page, which feels wasteful. My goal is to use this through the end of the year and then find something better (with dates already in there!) for 2023.
