SAM HECHT 10 Key Calculator
1 recommendation
"Dope. I also like it in white. Just in time to crunch the numbers for tax season. And it has a USB port so you can connect it to your computer, but I can't imagine why."
Password.Log
1 recommendation
"from seejanework.com: Writing your password down and sticking it to your computer monitor sort of defeats the purpose of a password. Keep usernames, passwords, account numbers, and more in a place where you can find them (but the temp who uses your desk after hours can't), with the Password.log from Buttoned Up. Sized to fit in your handbag or desk drawer (one that locks) the Password.log..."
Kitchen Video Message Center

"Start off your New Year's resolution to be more organized with a great gadget that will keep the whole family 'in the know' with the day's schedule. The camera feature will even enable you to shoot them a specialized "arched-eyebrow, evil eye" look to let them know you REALLY MEAN IT when you say that Fluffy needs to be given a worm pill at 4 pm. from the site: Stay in touch with your on-the..."
USPS Online Holiday Mailing Deadline Calendar
1 recommendation
"Christmas will be here before you know it- so bookmark this site and add the deadlines it shows you to your Blackberry so your cards and packages make it before Santa does. Elsewhere on the site you can order holiday stamps, print shipping labels and order custom Christmas cards. Very, very handy!"

Sony ICDB300 Digital Voice Recorder
2 recommendations
"Here's my most important use for this product: when I'm going some place and need directions, I dictate the directions step by step into the recorder. That way I'm not looking at a map or a MapQuest printout while I'm trying to drive. Not everyone with ADD totally lacks a sense of direction, but for me it's an associated feature. Having the directions in the voice recorder just helps me feel s..."
Nordic Naturals Inc. EPA Omega 3 lemon flavor
1 recommendation
"I am super-bullish on the longevity and anti-inflammatory power of omega-3 fish oils. Only bummer about fish oil is that it often tastes terrible and can give you fishy (read nasty) burps. But not Nordic Naturals Pro EPA lemon flavored omega 3 capsules. I don't know how they do it but they taste ok and don't make me think of fish all day long. Plus, Nordic Naturals has a reputation (well-foun..."
Time Square (chalkboard clock)
2 recommendations
"This is a unique, multipurpose, innovative clock! Decorate it with your doodles or make notes to yourself because it's a chalk board. Post notes or important items because it's a magnetic board. Super fabulous gift idea."
ADHD T-Shirt
18 recommendations
"ADHD T-Shirt - Do you rock so hard you can't possibly be expected to sit still and pay attention? What did you say? I need some more Red Bull and Rock Star. Rock this ADHD t-shirt and twitch like a squirrel. I don't get it... What is ADHD? If you don't know you probably have it. As worn by Vince on HBO's Entourage."

Magnetic Pencil Holder
1 recommendation
"This tiny kit consists of an amazingly strong magnet worn outside the shirt, a metal disk worn inside the shirt (for the magnet to cling to), and metal clips that can be put onto pencils or pens to make them cling to a magnet. As someone who loses her pencil every time she puts it down, this is one system I can't wait to try! I would wear it on the sleeve of my shirt, down toward the wrist, to..."
Inspiration-Perfect for ADD!
1 recommendation
"I love Lisa Jay's "ADD" List----I really think it is helpful. I accidently found computer software, Inspiration, that was created to help middle school kids organize and create reports. As an ADD Adult, I use it for business purposes ALL THE TIME. You can download a 30 day free trial to test it out and all of the documents created in Inspiration can be exported to Word, Powerpoint or PDF----so..."
Timer on a Rope
4 recommendations
"Great way to make sure you hear the timer if you're cooking something, and easy to use. For those of us with ADD, this is a great way to keep track of time for anything. Need to get in the shower in half an hour? If I'm on the computer, I might lose track of that. But not if I set this baby. It's right around my neck, so my chance of losing it is greatly reduced. Also, we ADDers have a..."
Active View Project Platform
7 recommendations
"I've had this on my desk for a couple of weeks now, and it really does keep information I need right at eye level for me. My to-do list goes on a sticky note on it. I put my planner there, open to the calendar monthly view, so I don't lose track of upcoming appointments and events. I can also put things in it to get them out of my way when I need more desk space. It's a good place to put my ..."
FranklinCovey Training Course - FOCUS: Achieving Your Highest Priorities
1 recommendation
"For me, this was the starting place on the road to effective organization, time and information management. My brother and his colleagues had been sent to this workshop by their boss, and he just raved about it. In fact, he became something of a zealot. He convinced me to attend, and I'm so glad I did. This convinced me that storing information on little pieces of loose paper or post-it..."
Pendaflex Project Sorter
1 recommendation
"We all know the "stacks of paper on the desk" system of organizing papers isn't good. Heaven knows we've been told often enough. Yet we persist. Why? Because those of us with ADD can get JUST A LITTLE stuck in our ways. Here is a product that lets you keep those stacks organized. Each stack gets a tab, which keeps it separate from the other stacks, and each tab gets a label, so you can fin..."
Purseket Purse And Tote Bag Organizer
1 recommendation
"You know how a purse can become a black hole? And that thing you need, you know it's in there, but it must be buried. . . so you end up taking everything OUT of your purse and stacking it all there on the counter. . . We've all been there, right? Well these combat that. Not only do these little pouches keep things from getting buried, but if you have to take everything out, it all stays w..."
uten.silo
4 recommendations
"Sometimes the classics need a nod. This unit, designed by Dorothee Maurer-Becker, was great when it was introduced in 1969 and it's still great now. As someone with Attention Deficit Disorder, I can especially appreciate any design that keeps things visible, organized and close at hand. I WILL own one of these some day."
Birth Control Pill Alarm Case
15 recommendations
"Birth control pills have to be taken at the same time every day in order to be most effective. This container has an alarm that you set once, and then it will remind you every day when it is time to take your pill. Now all you have to remember is to refill your prescription at the pharmacy every month before you run out, and get to the doctor who prescribes it every year to get a new prescript..."
Pill Case with Reminder Alarms
1 recommendation
"Most of us with ADD take some sort of medication for it--and of course we have whatever other medicines we take for whatever reasons. Two problems with this, if you have ADD: remembering to take the pill, and remembering whether you took the pill. This one solves both of those problems. You do have to remember to set it up for the next day. This one seems awfully big. I'd like to find so..."
IKEA SONNE Storage unit on casters
1 recommendation
"Mine sits in front of my couch, and is the hands-on storage unit I use every day. It is "bill paying central" and "office supplies central" and "my online used book business central." It is four-sided and is on castors; I can spin it to whichever side I need. One side has three drawers and two shelves. Another side is designed to hold file folders. Another has shelves, and the last one has a..."
Ziploc Big Bags
3 recommendations
"This is a must-have for anyone who has trouble staying organized. They are huge, so a great many things will fit inside, and they are see-through, so you can tell what's in there. Also, since they close tightly, you can use them to store things in the basement or garage that you otherwise might worry would get moisture damage. If someone is coming over to visit and the house is a mess, just..."
Key Caps

"These help me find the key I need quickly and easily. I recommend them for anyone who has a bunch of identical keys. These funky designer caps, discontinued by the Container Store, just turned up at spoonsisters.com. Yay! Regular ones are so bo-ring."
ADD-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life
1 recommendation
"This is the most helpful book I've ever read about Attention Deficit Disorder. I keep it in the bathroom so that I will see it every day and consult it as needed. It's not just the "OMG THIS IS ME!" experience that makes it good. This is where I learned to keep things visible, use quick keyword filing, make and use a bill-paying kit (envelopes, stamps, pen, calculator, etc. all in one place), a..."
Locker Pak Backpack
2 recommendations
"Boy, would this have helped when I was in school! My backpack was a bottomless pit into which things would disappear forever. This looks especially well-designed so that items are organized and accessible--and visible, so you know where things are. It's a long time since I've carried a backpack (unless, well, backpacking), but I may need to get the adult-sized version for myself."
Post-it Durable Index Tabs
2 recommendations
"These are sturdy, they stick well, and you can write on them. Great for labelling a piece of paper with a "to do," such as "CALL THEM," or for just making it easy to identify in a meeting or a file full of papers. My best use for them is for reference papers. I have a 3-ring binder full of papers I refer to frequently, such as phone lists, billing codes, instructions and so on. Each one is in ..."
A-Z Reinforced Expanding Files
1 recommendation
"If you have ADD, the key to quick filing is key-word filing. For most papers, there will be a few key words that jump to mind. Your latest auto insurance policy comes in the mail. You grab your A to Z expanding file and put it under A for Auto or I for Insurance. When you need to find your auto insurance policy, where will you think to look? A for Auto or I for Insurance. Using this system, ..."
Pendaflex | PileSmart Label Clips
1 recommendation
"This helps a lot in meetings, where I tend to become quickly disorganized with regard to my reference papers. I used to use a paper clip, but being able to label the clip is the difference between success and chaos. Also great for organizing those piles of papers on your desk."
EZPocket Wall Hanger
5 recommendations
"This is great because it provides visual reminders while keeping track of key items. Tickets to a play the 27th? Put them in the 27th pocket, and there they are when the time comes. Sort of like a 43 Folders system, but without hiding the things you need in a place no one with ADD ever looks: the file drawer."
