Publisher's Note
Organizing books fall short of addressing the unique needs of adults with ADD. They fail to understand the clinical picture of ADD and how it impacts the organizing process often making their advice irrelevant or frustrating when put into application. Books about ADD may address organization/disorganization but do so in a cursory fashion and on a very small scale in what are usually long books on the subject. This is a book that has ADD-Friendly advice with the ADDer in mind. This collaboration brings forth the best underlying understanding with the most effective and practical remedy from ADD experts in two important fields -- professional organization and clinical psychology. Finally, it offers organizing advice that ranges from self-help to utilizing the help of non-professionals, to using professional assistance. Thus it permits the reader to decide where they are at personally in the organizing process, and what level of support will be most beneficial to their unique situation.
ADD-FRIENDLY WAYS TO GET ORGANZED provides ADD sufferers with a guide to organization with their needs in mind. The book presents specific solutions to the special problems ADD can pose to organizational tasks, along with success stories in achieving these tasks. Broken down into the three main areas in need of order: objects, time, and paper, this invaluable guide will take the reader through a variety of possible methods for arranging one's closet, prioritizing on a busy day, and taming the paper tiger. Written by both an organizational expert and a well-known ADD specialist, this book will prove a necessary accoutrement for living with ADD and imposing order on a chaotic life.
