I chose this book because, although undiagnosed, I often feel as though I have ADHD. And after reading it I have a clearer glimpse of the possibility. Especially dealing with some of the topics it mentioned. Which, I was surprised I could relate to most of them. Some were things I had never even thought of.
I gave it a four star because I did not agree with some of the suggestions for handling ADHD. However, I would recommend this for couples and individuals alike.
An interesting look into how ADHD can affect relationships, specifically marriage. I enjoyed the way the author laid out the subject and her own personal experiences.
As the partner of someone with ADHD, I am very grateful to have received an early copy of this. Whilst having ADHD is extremely hard, being in a relationship with someone who has it is also hard. I enjoyed the explanation of ADHD traits that create relationship problems (very sad to see just how many there are) coupled with practical tips of how to overcome them.
Thank you for being so open and vulnerable Lisette.
I picked this book up due to the title. I needed something as sort of a self-help book of sorts to help me understand my condition as someone who struggles with ADHD. I struggle with ADHD daily and the married life can sort of complicate things. I’m so glad I came across this book. I hope to apply what I learn with my daily life and to help me understand my partners point of view.
Avenelle's book spoke to me personally. While I am undiagnosed, I do have ADHD-like behavior that makes my marriage sometimes very stressful as my husband and I attempt to communicate through these occurrences. Reading this book better helped me understand myself. I did not feel like I could leave 5 stars though because some passages seemed to be repetitive as Avenelle made her point.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.
I enjoyed reading this. I have diagnosed ADHD so this was a good read.
My husband has always just laughed off my 'crazy' ways off and has just over the years accepted them and even more so since i was diagnosed so i have been lucky in that respect but relationships and friendships in the past and present have been affected so was refreshing to understand that its not just a me problem.
It was well written, interesting and would recommend.
This was a great book , for those who are married to an ADHD spouse, to learn the basics of ADHD and if you are the spouse who doesn’t have ADHD. It helps you understand more what could go on in your marriage and how to understand your neurodiverse spouse and them understand you. I believe all this would work and help but if the neurodiverse spouse will not work with you then I don’t see how it could, but hopefully some neurodiverse spouse’s will work with their neurotypical spouse to help understand them better. We all have to work together to understand one another and this book will help with understanding, knowing what to expect and how to handle it.. The Neurodiverse spouse need to work with their neurotypical spouse so things aren’t so overwhelming for them. The neurotypical should do the same.
I selected this book as I have been learning more about women and ADHD. The information in the ADHD & Your Marriage was insightful. As I have not been formally assessed and am new to the idea, some of the medical or similar information was unfamiliar. However, I did learn more about the condition and could see how relationships can be affected by it. I do wish there were more structured tips; some seemed generic. Overall though, it is a good layperson's book for learning more on how ADHD can impact marriage.
I received a copy of this book from Net Galley and have written an objective review.
Very insightful read. It was very helpful as well. Would highly recommend this to my fellow ADHD folks
I enjoyed the information provided in this book and found it to be very helpful. It is always good to have background information about why someone might be inclined to have certain tendencies in a relationship as well as how that can affect the relationship.
As a person with a partner, neither diagnosed but potentially suspect both may have ADHD, this was an interesting read into behaviours of ADHD and how this can interlink with relationships either romantic or platonic. There was some information that I will take away with me to better assist day to day for us.
Thanks to NetGalley and L. Avanelle for the eARC :)
