    Well, if you’re anything like me, quite a few of your clothes at any one time might be on the floor. It makes it easier to select what you want to wear. I – and millions of people like me – call it my floordrobe. It’s a form of storage for clothing which requires no hangers, drawers, doors or effort.

    2009 December 1, Mark Shea, “Floordrobe”, in BBC

    What about items you’ve only worn once and don’t want to wash but also don’t want to return to your closet because you think you’ll wear them again in the near future? If that sounds familiar, you might have what some call a “floordrobe.” And this manifestation of laundry clutter is quite common among people with ADHD.
