ADHD can significantly impact romantic relationships.
Symptoms like inattentiveness, impulsivity, and emotional dysregulation can lead to misunderstandings, frustration, and resentment. However, by recognizing these challenges and implementing effective strategies, couples can build healthy and fulfilling relationships.
I bet that’s what my mom was thinking in this photo—worrying about the future of her highly emotional and hyperactive kid.
Let me introduce you to a little science corner:
Confession time: After listening to the legendary Maria Callas, I was convinced I was destined to be an opera singer. It started with a moment of pure joy, singing "Ave Maria" and realizing that—hey—I might actually have a decent high pitch!
For people with ADHD it can be challenging to stop and pay attention to what we focus on, to halt the avalanche of anger, sadness, joy, and other emotions. This is particularly difficult for teenagers, who are already navigating a significant transitional period in their lives. They often face difficulties in their relationships with parents and peers, being too impulsive and unable to regulate their emotions effectively.
“You should teach her how to behave.” These are the words my mom heard the most. Growing up, my family saw me as the misbehaving kid spoiled by my single parent. But no one, not even my teachers, suspected I could have ADHD. After all, ADHD was something reserved for hyperactive boys with poor grades, not a girl with a thousand ideas per minute who managed to excel academically. Little did they know, my hyperfocus and incredibly active mind could absorb anything interesting in no time—what some call an ‘ADHD superpower.’
ADHD is often seen as a childhood disorder, usually associated with energetic boys who can’t sit still. But did you know that ADHD affects women too, and often in ways that are quite different? If you’re a woman struggling with ADHD, you’re definitely not alone—and understanding more about it can help you manage your symptoms and thrive.
Living with ADHD can feel like a constant uphill battle. Whether you're an adult juggling work and home responsibilities or a parent watching your teen struggle with school and social life, you know the challenges all too well. That's where ADHD coaching comes in, offering a personalized, practical approach to help you or your loved one thrive.
