This book, which was named the "Best Psychology Book of 2010" by ForeWord Reviews and has been updated for the year 2020, is an invaluable resource for couples in which one partner has ADHD (ADHD). According to the authors' experience, this book can help troubled couples understand and appreciate the difficulties and triumphs that come with having a child with ADHD, while also helping them view the disorder in a more positive and less disruptive light. Going beyond traditional marriage counselling which can often discount the influence of ADHD, this straight-forward discussion offers advice from the author's personal experience and years of research and identifies patterns of behaviour that can hurt marriages -such as nagging, intimacy problems, sudden anger, and memory issues -through the use of vignettes and descriptions of actual couples and their ADHD struggles and solutions. This resource encourages both spouses to become active partners in repairing their relationship and healing the fractures that ADHD can cause. To help couples find a technique that works for their unique relationship and improve their communication skills, there are worksheets and various methods included.
