About this listen

Your partner's attention deficit disorder (ADD) may not seem like a big deal at first, but eventually, the dynamics surrounding his or her impulsivity, forgetfulness, distractibility, and restlessness can really strain your relationship. You don't want to act like a parent, yet you may feel like you can't rely on your partner to get things done. Loving Someone with Attention Deficit Disorder is your guide to navigating a relationship with someone with ADD so you can create healthy boundaries while remaining sympathetic to your partner's symptoms.

An essential resource for every couple affected by ADD, this book will help you:

  • Understand medication and other treatments
  • Recover quickly when your partner's symptoms frustrate you
  • Establish personal boundaries to avoid excessive caretaking
  • Identify and take care of your own needs so you can feel more relaxed

Bias to the woes and endless suffering and hardship of being a partner to someone with ADHD, and zero reflection on what problems the non ADHD person brings to the table.

I (the ADHD partner) have listened to this because my non ADHD partner asked me to, there are some interesting points, reflections and excersizes that I feel will be useful, however, there is zero reflection on the bad habits, emotional issues and real world problems that the non ADHD partner brings.

It only relates to how the non ADHD partner deals with the problems of being with someone who has ADHD and it's not really a book for the couple, more the individual.

Some useful points, but biased towards the suffering of the non ADHD partner.
