Hey, 29 ADHD, 50mg Vyvanse, currently 2 semesters away from getting teaching certification in secondary English/Special Ed. So, this semester I learned a valuable lesson: I have to be organized from day one otherwise, it's an uphill battle come November/December. I've had limited success with calenders and day planners; I've never used a PDA for fear that I'll get lazy with it. A friend suggested an iPhone as a feasible option (the fact that it is a phone increases the likelihood I'll remember to carry it). Any thoughts? Thanks. Well, whatever you decide on, make sure you figure out how to use it. I take notes and make appointments, but forget to back to them. All the sticky notes on the fridge look alike, now.
Black Berry. nough said. Water Melon. more said. [QUOTE=billy78]Hey,29 ADHD, 50mg Vyvanse, currently 2 semesters away from getting teaching certification in secondary English/Special Ed.

[/QUOTE] I think what you're talking about isn't just schedules--it's getting term papers etc in on time. I used to use a honkin' huge erasable 4 month wall calender with the deadlines marked in red and the task breakdowns in green. [Eg paper due Dec1. Research for paper Nov 22-23] Don't worry about anyone thinking your lazy for using time tricks. Worry about what YOU want to accomplish ![]() espresso 54mgconcerta & treo700wx calendar & conacts.... btw you can have free online backup to smartphones at mail2web.com, lifesaver for when you loose phone..... btw, how you clowns been? [QUOTE=OutOfTheLoop] Black Berry. nough said. [/QUOTE]
I'm getting one ASAP! I can back up my work life, home life and appointments. I can set alarms and email myself things if I need to, the only problem being I will look like one of those business men with nothing better to do than fiddle with their blackberrys! heh. Never mind. I would agree, blckberry and whiteboards!! I use a Treo 700w. Any of the smart phone type devices (blackberry, iphone) etc would work. My Treo is tough. I've dropped it numerous times and it keeps on working.[QUOTE=rayray812x]espresso 54mgconcerta OMG! Is that really you, Ray? You're not ray, are you?! I've been, well... ...well!
