Struggling with creating daily life timetables and becoming overwhelmed

Rainbowgirl

Hi

I am really struggling with creating timetables for my daily life, I have no end of diaries and planner/budget books. I also have a whiteboard with the days of the week and the month. I feel the reason I struggle is my ASD and was wondering if anyone had any advice?

  • This year, I've started to keep a bullet journal. It was created by Ryde Carroll. I got his book, but there is also a big online community. You can find them on you tube amongst others. Ignore the fact that many of them have loads of fancy art things and focus on adding the important information that works for you. You can make it pretty if you want to, but if you spend time on making it fancy, you'll lose interest. I used to have a load of diaries, calendars and half written notebooks that got used briefly and then ignored. I like this because it uses a notebook and even though I started doing it a certain way in January, I'm still able to change it as I figure out the bits that work, and the bits that don't.
