Disorganization is the "earmark of adult Attention Deficit Disorder," according to Dale Jordan In Attention Deficit Disorder. In his excellent book, ADD Success Stories,Thom Hartman states, "People with ADD are often disorganized and cluttered and can benefit tremendously from learning organizational strategies that teach them how to impose order and systems on their schooling or work."

In her book, Women with Attention Deficit Disorder, Sari Solden writes that "disorganization in one form or another is the subject that most women with ADD talk about the most in counseling either
*the stress of living with it,
*strategies for dealing with it,
*or the emotions surrounding it."
