Description
This revised and updated version also includes helpful assessments of the latest digital tools for organization and new research on the ADHD brain.
About 4.4% of the adult population—over 13 million Americans—have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD.) Yet four out of every five are not even aware of it, and how it can affect their professional and personal lives if not managed well. Written by professional organizer Susan Pinsky, Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD, 3rd Edition outlines a practical life management approach that emphasizes easy maintenance techniques and maximum efficiency, catering to the specific needs of the ADHD population.
Divided into two easy-to-read sections, the first covering this life-changing new method and the second showing how to implement it in each part of the home, Susan’s practical solutions address the most common organizing dilemmas among her ADHD clientele, while also drawing on her own personal experience as the mother of a child with ADHD.
The projects section, organized by the type of room or task, consists of practical organizing solutions for people living with ADHD:
- At work: prioritizing, time management, and organizing documents
- At home: paying bills on time, decluttering your house, scheduling and keeping appointments
- With kids: driving them to various activities, grocery shopping and meals, laundry, babysitters, organizing drawers and closets
- At leisure: organizing time for your social life, gym, and various other hobbies and activities
Color photographs are featured throughout, as well as sidebars and testimonials from adults with ADHD, providing numerous organizational tips, such as the importance of dividing time into minutes or moments, task completion, how to avoid procrastination, asking for help, and minimizing unnecessary stuff.
Get your life in order with this witty and sympathetic guide to organization.

This is a good book for anyone who is wanting to be more organized, whether they are ADHD or not.
The suggestions and examples were clearly written, with photos showing the types of bins the author describes, storage solutions, accessories, etc.
As I was reading the book, I was making a mental list of all the rooms and spaces that I want to apply these techniques to. I know that my house needs a really good purge (do I really need my high school year books from 20 years ago, especially when I have no real fond memories of high school?). I will be following her advice to block off chunks of time to tackle a room or space, divide things into a few piles, and then let go of things that I don't need, don't use, are broken, obsolete, or could easily be replaced if I do have need of them in the future.
Thanks to NetGalley and the author for an advance copy of the book. All opinions are my own.
