Adult ADD: Say Goodbye to Clutter
Summary: If you or someone close to you has Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), you understand the struggle with clutter. Let’s explore how to tackle organization and eliminate the chaos of "stuff everywhere."
The bedroom is often ground zero for ADD-related mess. You might find clothes scattered, shoes piling up, and laundry hampers forgotten. If this sounds familiar, don't worry. By creating an ADD-friendly system, you can manage the clutter and simplify life for both you and your loved ones.
Start by getting three large trash cans (around 30 gallons) for your bedroom. Ideally, choose different colors. If you can't find them, consider spray-painting one white, one dark, and one red. As you undress, sort your clothes into bins for whites, darks, and colors. They’ll be pre-sorted for laundry day, preventing the dreaded underwear obstacle course.
For shoes, consider open bins?"one for each color category or just one overall bin, depending on your collection. This allows you to easily toss shoes in, rather than littering the floor.
Next, let’s address the clutter in your ADD-prone office. Books and papers might be strewn about, with sticky notes plastering your computer or desk. How can you keep your appointments and tasks in order?
First, ensure you have sufficient bookshelf space near your desk. Don't overload the shelves?"if new books don’t fit, it’s time to declutter. Remember, if you haven’t used a book in six months, consider giving it away.
Now, tackle sticky notes with a small notebook that stays on your desk. Choose something enjoyable to use, ensuring you jot down everything from phone numbers to notes. A flat-opening notebook works best for easy access.
Develop a routine: transfer important information to your address book or calendar daily. Keep a desk calendar in front of you to track appointments clearly, reducing the risk of losing vital information.
For paper organization, sort them into three categories: important, moderately important, and discardable. Combat boredom by setting a timer for five minutes each morning to file papers in a hanging file system or box. Consistent, short bursts will make a difference in reducing the paper mountain.
As new papers arrive, use three file bins for initial sorting. Over time, this system will make daily organization quicker and more efficient.
Many people with ADD dislike clutter but struggle with monotonous tasks like filing. Implementing an ADD-friendly system and a simple routine can lead to a happier, more organized life, pleasing both you and those around you.
