I was having lots of problems with ADD symptoms a couple of months ago. I find that when my anxiety and depression are under decent control, and I am sleeping and eating well, that most of these symptoms abate. (Sometimes then I jump straight to disorganized multi-tasking, though, because I am behind on things and am trying to catch up.)

When I'm having more problems with depression and anxiety and my sleep quality isn't good, I become forgetful, have problems with motivation, become disorganized in my living space, and procrastinate to the extreme.

I did some reading about ADD and read that depression can cause ADD symptoms.

Since I didn't have my first depressive episode until I was in my 20s, I can remember "before" - then I tended to be restless if I was bored (which wasn't too often) and to procrastinate on big tasks that I didn't really want to do. Overall, I was pretty organized and non-ADD though.

I have been trying to find some tips for organizing for people with ADD. Thanks for posting this topic. I think that building some habits into our lives can help people with ADD symptoms whether or not we ever get an "official" ADD diagnosis.

I was working on some of those habits, but I have felt my depression getting worse during the last week, so I have stopped and gone back to my "can't be bothered to make the effort" mode.
