With my ADHD, my desk usually falls into the realms of absolute chaos when it comes to organization. I can clear out the clutter, but things usually return to a state of disarray in less than a day.

I can’t blame it all on my ADHD because I also have several businesses that I run from this office, and things are usually in here and related to those businesses. Not to mention writing for several blogs. The demand of everything requires that I take organizing things, such as my time, seriously.

Will I clean it and try to keep it clean? Sure.

Do I think better with a clear desk or a chaotic one? That’s a toss up. Clear and clean is optimal because I don’t see something and remember something else, but chaotic is a sign that I’m focused on what it is I’m doing at the moment.

When writing, I’ll pull out my outlines and pictures and whatever else I need. Do I stay here and write? Not always. I have been known to go to other places in the house to write. My bedroom being one. In fact, I’ve done this recently. It just depends on the mood.
