    In true ADHD fashion, I put this book in one of my office drawers and completely forgot it existed. That was, until I was feeling very overwhelmed from work and I remembered awesome past me thought of moments like these and bought the anti-planner. I started flipping through the sections until I found exactly what I needed. Man, I’ve never felt so called out in my life. I LOVE it. Thank you Dani for making this book, not only it’s fun and it makes me feel understood, but it provides alternatives and nonstandard solutions. Now I can’t wait to decorate my office with your posters.

    OMG! You NEED this book!

    I just got it yesterday and I’ve already (finally) learned what people mean when they say prioritise.

    I’ve shown it to my friends (some of whom are struggling with OCD, depression, burnout, or anxiety) and they’ve all learnt something from it and have asked to borrow it.

    I’m planning to show it to my therapist and university student help office.

    This book is going to change so many lives including yours!

    My husband, also ADHD brain, bought this for me after we saw it recommended on the “How to ADHD” YT channel. Of course I didn’t unpack the package for a couple of weeks. And when I did and finished marvelling at the production value and all the illustrations, I put it aside for anothe couple of weeks.

    We managed to get some of our sh.t together (you know, the cleaning up after a couple of years you somehow manage sometimes) and I didn’t have a set place for the anti planner and a truckload of guilt for not reading it, so it landed on my desk.

    Yesterday I started reading after feeling overwhelmed by a lot of paperwork and by gawd, it instantly helped. I finished writing two invoices AND got othe stuff done. Before lunch. Like, what the heck?!

    We’re having trouble finding therapists or coaches for adults with ADHD in Germany. While nothing replaces a good therapist, I know this anti planner will help me stay afloat and manage my ADHD way better than I did the last 37 years with only youtube to help me.
    The Anti Planner now has a set place on the living room coffetable.

    If you’re reading this and wondering if this anti planner can help you – I don’t know you, but I’m calling this little wonderbook my pocket emergency therapist replacement for when “there are no fan blades vast enough for the excrement to strike”. It’s a life saver and an interesting, educating and funny read during my morning coffee.

    Thank you so, so, so much for making this!!

    OMG! OMG! OMG! THE BOOK CAME EARLY! I thought it was going to be shipped in December! THANK YOU!!! I rushed home during my lunch break to grab it before any porch pirates found it. Needless to say, I got absolutely nothing done at work after that. (sigh) There’s always tomorrow, RIGHT?. I totally love the colors and graphics, each page is eye catching and holds my attention (probably why I didn’t get much work done this afternoon). I can’t wait until I get home to go through it again.

    This is an excelent book. I can feel identified with most of the sections and it is great to either validate the techniques you have tried to overcome the difficulties that arise or find new techniques. Thanks for creating this.
