About this listen
An invaluable resource for couples in which one of the partners suffers from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), this authoritative book guides troubled marriages toward an understanding of and appreciation for the struggles and triumphs of a relationship affected by it and to look at the disorder in a more positive and less disruptive way. Going beyond traditional marriage counseling, this discussion offers advice from the author's personal experience and years of research and identifies patterns of behavior 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 improving their relationship and healing the fissures that ADHD can cause.

The Answer to my Marrige
This book has possibly saved my marrige in the nick of time. It is perhaps to early to say that it surely has, but all the complaints my wife has about life with me was highlighted here as traits of an ADHD spouse. I look forward to setting a new path for our lives together, thank you Melissa for writing this book.

It’s for the non adhd partner
If you are an adhd person looking for strategy to save your relationship, steer away from this book. It’s written for the non adhd partner and gives strategy on how they should manage the relationship with an adhd person.
Totally useless for adhd people unless you want to gift it to your spouse

Liberating!
I am so grateful for this book. I recently split from my girlfriend who has ADHD. In fact she dumped me for about the 50th time. As soon as she felt us getting really close she would pull away. And pain would ensue. I have really struggled to understand her despite throwing myself heart and soul into the relationship. We still communicate now via text and occasionally see each other. It's hard to believe we will ever get back together though I still dearly love her. But this audiobook really helped understand her so much. It brought me to tears on many occasions. Thank you for helping me at least to understand her a little better. I wish I had listened to it much earlier in our relationship, perhaps (from my side at least) I could have reacted to certain stimuli in much better ways and things could have turned out differently. I'm very grateful for the act of generosity that this book is.
