I need to use brain dumps to get it out of my head and see it on paper. Then, I organize my thoughts by sorting what I wrote on paper. Then I try to set an order for things I want to accomplish. If I think about things too long, it can becomes too draining.

I am just not into the idea of sitting for a while to decorate calendar pages. I love it when other people do it. Yes, stickers are distracting, and planning how they fit together cohesively and in a logic spatial order would take too long with ADHD.

Do you still sell this planner???

2:41 the stickers are so engrossing 😅 yo I think that why the bullet journal seems so calming to me, still haven’t done that one yet but something about it’s so peaceful minimalistic that feels helpful

Ok I see yr point auntie Alexandra. 😊

Right! I agree with Ms Victoria Christina that u don't have adhd, u were diagnosed with it. But that doesnt mean u have it. But I just wanted to say I don't have it but yr functional planner is very helpful to me. The pretty stuff takes yr attention & focus away from what u need to do. Thank u. God bless. ❤ and I like how u were so excited abt yr boyfriend using the planner. Lol

If i dont have someone present in the room to beat me with a stick if i stray from the ‘PLAN’ I will legit run in circles all damn day. For the record we the toddlers 😂 great info will try.

Great video I’m gonna go look at the planners now thank you

I think I do a hybrid. Mostly functional but I do add a washi border and a few stickers to keep myself interested in opening the planner and coming back to it. If I did no deco, I wouldn’t reach for it. I enjoyed your video thanks for sharing your layout.

I have used a spiral notebook for 30 years! I recipe plan, scribble, zentangle, grocery list, to do list, appt’s, reminders all-in-one in it. I can bullet which is what I need for my list or organize my grocery list according to aisles in the store and there’s no preplanned sections to work through. Your planner looks great!

I have ADHD and I have a functional pretty planner if that’s a thing 😂 I pre decorate pages when I need a break from a current task. I also use icon stickers to make sure I pay attention to current tasks. I’m a color coder, I don’t list because I will not pay attention to it so icon stickers are a go to for me as well as flag stickers. I took a longggg time finding what would work for me. Also I track everything in my planner. Rings a5 is my jam for now

Can you link the type of washi sticker paper you use?

I just wanted to take a moment and tell you I just came across your channel today as I was looking for inspiration and I decided to watch your video and found out that clearly myself being ADHD is not alone. I was unsure because I’ve never actually been diagnosed but I’ve always felt as though I was I struggle to stay focused. I struggled to get things done. I’m a go-getter gosh I mean I start 1 million things, but I have such a hard time finishing them, and then the part that you said about the planners, collecting all the planners or buying the planners to collect them and then turning around and buying more again, I forget how you worded it exactly but that is me 100%. I have every paper packet inserts available every extension pack every planner I have a gazillion you would think that, happy planner you would think that I worked for happy planner and I was given stuff like an affiliate. That’s how much I have but I don’t that’s just how much I have spent trying to get the right system to work for myself and I still struggle I do have a question, I really struggle with creativity when it comes to these planners do you have any suggestions as far as coming up with a template to use to decorate these planners because I really like being able to decorate my pages but I’m just not very good at coming up with ideas. If you have any suggestions that would be awesome and I made sure to subscribe to your channel so I don’t know if you are still making content, but you are I would love to see more..

The whole intro is ADHD. by definition lol

As an ADHD mom of 4, business owner of 2, I can attest that I don't want to spend hours decorating notebokks rather than time tracking or scheduling tasts and events I need to remember or focus on. I could be sleeping woth tjose hours. Or showering with that craft decoration time. Or breathing. I have 't had tine to dry my haor or put on makeup in a decade. A literal decade and those used to be essentials in prepping for my day. One of my lods has special needs so he eats all the energy in the room and any breathing time I habe left goes to his siblings. Or their meals: cooking cleaning, laundry, dishes, work projects,phone calls... i might check email 1-2x/month because who can sit down that long in the summer without somebody screaming a demand?

Please get medical help your finger might be broken.

Where can I get this planner???

Where can you buy this planner?

Yes! Thank you for function over fancy! I am so about that! And yes, the rabbit hole does exist! I can't get through a movie without looking up the cast, etc. Lol I do love using stickers but definitely after writing. I cannot just figure out where to place stickers and then feel confined to just the little space that sticker represents (if that makes sense). Thanks for sharing!

I'm the ADHD that won't use a plain planner. Everything just becomes a blob and stickers help direct my eyes. I have to make the page attractive or I won't use it

I have always struggled with trying to find WHERE I had written things down that were important. Too many sticky notes, or pieces of scrap paper flying around the house. So I finally figured out what works for me: I found VERY pretty notebooks/journals, because they make me WANT to use them, and they are easy to spot in my clutter. AND I have a different one for each area of my life: shopping list, to do list, scouting, gardening, etc...That way I don't have to schlepp my entire life to the grocery store, and don't have to keep flipping through lots of pages to find what I am looking for. HOWEVER, I agree with you, my "layouts" are super simple, hardly decorative at all. Because 1) I am not that artistic, and 2) it would take me forever to decide how to decorate each page. By then I would have forgotten what I needed to write down. But I apparently do need the visual and tactile "reward" of handling something pretty to actually use it and FIND it when needed.

this is a really neat planner, where could i purchase one?

Here is a suggestion: Ive just purchased a wallet with a small a7 5-ring binder inside with pockets for cards, keys, reciepts and cash. I love the idea of having journals for different things but it never works out and I end up abandoning them. with this layout I can make notes and lists while out without having to remember a seperate notebook. With a binder you can also add, remove and rearrange pages with different sections and also "folders" (a long piece of paper with "doors" just like a paper document folder) If anyone would like one but cant find one, you can buy the ring binder "spines" on their own with screws so you can simply find a wallet that suits you and screw in the binder part.

Lots of Luna slander going on in this video. 🤨😛😉 (#teamLuna 🐾) ❤

❤🎉

Anyone else watch this on 1.5x speed???

I am recommending this to my patients with ADHD. Thank you.

The website doesn't work for me, I'm no sure if it's because I'm from Brazil, but it's unsual.

I couldn't go to the planner website, it says the site can't be reached

I can related.

This is so chaotic and i’m only 4 min in.😩😂

Hi, did you explain what the color-codes/highlighting represent? I'm curious how you use the colors to help you out? (hoping it might help me, too). Thanks!

Can you do a video about how to start with paper planners for ADHD? there are so many options I have decision fatigue! I like this concept though I just don’t know where to start or what to get I’ve been using The ADHD Planner from Amazon and it’s meh, plus I don’t like how it’s a hardbound flatlay with only 3 months of dailies. Helppppp 😅

the link in the description to your website seems strange, my computer says it's not secure, and it doesn't look like a normal website - is this the most recent link you have, or can it be updated? maybe it's because i'm not in the same country as you or something 🤔

From Jamaica...we do it. So definitely from our ancestors.

Why am I here? Does the algorithm know something?

Not to also age myself, but I'm a first-time, college-aged person and I also read The Series of Unfortunate Events growing up, so don't worry about it! My planner is also Lemony Snicker-core because I eyeball my pages and cut with scissors, but it works just fine.

ADHD video that is 24 minutes long. 😂

lol. My name is Kim,I love functional planning and I have ADHD. Glad this came into my timeline.

Hi guys!!!! Just a gently reminder to you ,that you must not self-diagnoses yourself. Just bc you identified with some symptoms of a health condition it doesn't mean you have that disease. Rather it is mental or physical

I think I'm somewhere in the autism mixed with mild adhd, and I found that I needed a mix of my physical monthly calendar and journal to plan out long term, and a digital app that functions as my daily to-do list. I also use my calendar app's event function to help me keep track of appointments and work hours, since I don't have a 9-5 job.

I've found that the only thing that works for me, without feeling like it's an extra task or distracts me, it's simply having ONE notebook where I do everything. Meal plan, brain dump, task lists, etc. Then I cross everything off as I go. Works better than any planner or planning system I've ever tried

This is really helpful, thank you!! Though one thing was a problem for me and that was the dog whining, it was very distracting and sometimes even painful with my noise sensitivity 🫣

OMG, I’m ready to be your friend. You remind me so much of myself heheh loved those scrapbooking parties with my mom too and I’ve been wanting to figure out what to do with all my notes that I’ve collected over the years & scrapbooking or collage has been in the back of my mind but I also wonder if anyone collages anymore lol? I love your adhd content. I also can’t do stickers either. The entire spread becomes a habitat for the monkey and I probably won’t get a single thing on the list then sticker hahaha

Great video. I got mine today. A button piston filler. When I ordered it online i am afraid about the fine nib. Your video reassured me that I was making the right choice. Thanks. It's a joy to write with and i can't stop writing 😂. Ink filling is a breeze no ink on my fingers. 😂 When you said that you were nervous. I do understand now. And it's my first Estie !! 😅. Thanks again. 🙏 You got the last one. Me, I got the only one in my country!! 😂

My nana died at Christmas, and left me a huge collection of scrapbook supplies. Soooo much Creative Memories stuff you would not believe.

My ADHD couldn't tolerate the babble at the beginning. Anyone have timestamp for the useful bits?

I always write my day out with times.i write everything. For example ill start with 6am wake up 6:15 hygene +list all parts of hygene routine 6:30 make bed So on and so forth for the entire day. I usually organize my tasks by priority and dofficulty with the most difficult in the early part of the day and the least difficult when im more likely to be tired.

I can’t seem to find the planner you use with the disk, can you show me? Thanks

I have adhd and about 110 day planner/journals/post it’s /dry erase boards etc etc you name it I’ve tried it and I’m really bad at consistently makes lists and planners and always forget to make the list or stay on track with lists or day planning- it’s a struggle -I’ve gotten a little better at work and for school but it’s been years go trying hard to pick up lists and planning a habit and something I do consistently
