Add-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life

by Judith Kolberg

Add-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

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.

Synopsis:

This reference is a response to the needs of adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. It deals directly and exclusively with the greatest challenge that adults with ADHD face: the problem of disorganization.

Synopsis:

A professional organizer and a renowned ADD clinician join forces to present this guide that addresses the unique needs of adults with ADD. It offers organizing advice that ranges from self-help to utilizing the help of nonprofessionals to using professional assistance.

Synopsis:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 253-255) and index.

This book is a keeper! I first read it to get tips for organizing my home office and craft space. It gives simple, visually-cued ideas for that type of organization. But the area in which it has been a true time- and money-saver for me and my family is in bill-paying. The system suggested is simple and requires few steps, and little work that is taxing for an ADD/ADHD brain. Since I began using the bill-paying system, there have been very few overdue bills and I have spent so much less time paying bills. Perhaps the best feature of the book is the way it is organized. Clear, succinct chapters, including a summary page at the end of each chapter that we ADD-ers can copy and post in the area where the organization needs to take place.
