ADHD and Home Organizing
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a mental health disorder that can cause above-normal levels of hyperactive and impulsive behaviors. People with ADHD may also have trouble focusing their attention on a single task or sitting still for long periods of time. Both adults and children can have ADHD. It's a diagnosis the American Psychiatric Association (APA) recognizes. If you have ADHD, and are trying to organize your home, it's likely that you are struggling with one (or more) of some executive functions, which makes home organization especially challenging. Challenging, but not impossible
