To disarrange something is to make it — to move it out of the order it was in. Hair, papers on a desk, a carefully made bed, the folds of a dress. The things are still there; they are just not as they were. It is a rather or old-fashioned verb. Most people now say mess up, mix up, or make , and you will sound a little formal if you use disarrange in the kitchen. You still meet it in writing, especially when the writer wants a polite, almost gentle word for a small disorder, not a disaster. Though actually, it does not mean destroy, and it does not mean the mind is — that is a different word.
