Episode 11: What it’s like to be an ADHD couple
This week we unpack what it’s like to be in a relationship where BOTH people are ADHDers. We talk about the pitfalls and challenges, but also the fun stuff… and maybe even a few tips thrown in (even though we’re definitely NOT relationship coaches or counsellors!).
Themes discussed in this episode include:
Chemistry and attraction, and why ADHDers are often drawn to each other.
Why arguments can escalate quickly, and dealing with emotional regulation issues.
Rejection sensitivity dysphoria, and why it can cause issues in relationships.
Choosing to go childfree.
The boring stuff (ugh - housework and chores!).
The highlights of being an ADHD couple.
If you’re in a relationship where both partners are ADHDers, this episode is a MUST. (Oh - and if you’re in a relationship where your partner is neurotypical, maybe play this for them, heehee…)
