Thanks for your question. One of the features we have started here at HealthCentral is "The Many Faces of ADHD" Profiles of people with ADHD are posted on the Share Posts. At some point, we will have a listing of the different ones in one place. Anyway, the reason I mention this is because just as no two people are alike, no two people with ADHD are alike. Disorganization is certainly a trait of ADHD, but it does not mean that everyone with ADHD is disorganized.
For some people, clearing the clutter helps them to feel their mind is less cluttered and helps them to focus on other things. For others, clutter is a part of life, something that will be dealt with on a daily basis. Others yet have found a way to manage the clutter in their lives.
Again, no two people with ADHD are alike.
Here is a list of some of the Many Faces of ADHD:
