Hi, I have a very good understanding of ADHD and the difficulties it can bring.

Please feel free to funmail me if you have questions or would like more advice on this often misunderstood disorder.

I know my God-mom had that problem. I know you said you have tried calenders but did you try one of those like huge ones that some people keep on their fridge. Every time I go to her house she has everything all written out on her gigantic calender and it really keeps her ahead of things. If money isn’t a problem right now, I think you should consider a blackberry. They are great for those kinds of things for sure. Like keeping everything organized and all.
