Organizing Solutions for People with ADD, 2nd Edition outlines new organizing strategies that will be of value to anyone who wants to improve their organizational skills. This revised and updated version also includes tips and techniques for keeping your latest technologies in order and for staying green and recycling with ease.

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are prevalent in society today, afflicting about 4.4% of the adult population—over 13 million Americans. Four out of every five adults do not even know they have ADD.

The chapters, organized by the type of room or task, consist of practical organizing solutions for people living with ADD:

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

And you: organizing time for your social life, gym, and various other hobbies and activities
