Decluttering vs Organizing for ADHD Adults | Podcasthon


Listen Later

Decluttering and organizing are often treated as the same thing—but for adults with ADHD, understanding the difference can make a huge impact. In this episode of ADHD Support Talk Radio, Tara McGillicuddy and co-host Lynne Edris explore why organizing systems often fail when clutter hasn't been reduced first. Many adults with ADHD try to solve clutter by buying planners, containers, and organizing tools, only to find that the systems don't last. The problem often isn't the organizing system—it's that decluttering needs to happen first. Tara and Lynne discuss how decluttering and organizing are two different processes and why recognizing the difference can help reduce overwhelm and create systems that actually work for ADHD brains. They also explore the emotional side of clutter, decision fatigue, and practical strategies for beginning the decluttering process without becoming overwhelmed. This episode is part of Podcasthon, a global initiative where podcasts dedicate an episode to raising awareness about important causes and nonprofit organizations.
