ADHD ADD Planner Take 2

It’s not uncommon for everyone, whether they have ADHD or not to start the new year with a resolution to be more organized.  At the heart of that endeavor is often a new planner or organizer.  For people with ADD, ADHD planners have a special meaning often characterized by a love / hate relationship.

By mid-year, it has probably become very clear whether or not the planner you have is the right planner for ADD-ADHD symptoms of yours.  If not, this time of year is like New Years all over again for buying organizers, planners, and calendars.

Mid-Year Planners, Calendars, and Organizers

Calendar and planner makers can’t live by selling their organizers just once a year.  So, they use a variety of strategies to boost sales.  There are 18-month planners that run from July to December of the following year.  That’s July 2020 to December 2021 this year. 

Then there are Academic planners, back to school planners, teacher’s planners and all other types of calendars and organizers filling the shelves at your local Target, Office Depot, Staples, Wal-mart, or other favorite store.

I print out blank month-view Google Calendar pages to fill in as a writing calendar.

So, if your planner can’t handle your ADD-ADHD needs, head out and take another look at planners now.  Keep in mind what ways your current planner has not worked out for you.

Do you need more room for notes?  Do you need longer days?  Do you need a Daily ADD Planner instead of a Weekly ADD planner?  Do you need better visibility for weekend days instead of them being tucked away in a corner?

Or, stop trying to make something not made specifically for those with ADHD and ADD and keep your eyes peeled to ADDessories for our upcoming customized ADD Planners and ADHD Organizers which should be ready soon!
