Here is a good example, these are from the last time I was sick. In the first picture I was attempting to organize my files. However, as you can see, there is no rhyme or reason to the scattering of the documents throughout the room and all over the bed. I think all I succeeded in doing was making my files more disorganized.



My mind becomes "cluttered", the disaster depicted in the pictures is representative of what's going on inside my head. Clinicians primarily associate it with speech, as that's the only thing they can observe in a clinical setting. However, it's a lot more complex then that. It can range from having minor difficulties forming coherent, or grounded, thoughts, or to a complete breakdown in executive functioning that a person can't even tie their own shoes. It can also come through in writing, my notes from that time are practically incomprehensible.
