Book excerpt: Do you ever feel like your husband is an overgrown child? Or a really big teenager that needs to be reminded of everything or he'll forget. He's restless. He's jumpy. He's impatient, impulsive, and chronically late! He simply refuses to get organized and puts off everything--and I mean everything--until the last minute. Is this the guy you married? What the heck happened to him? Was he always this way? Or is it all in your head? More importantly, is there anything you can do to fix it, or do you have to suffer with his atrocious habits for the rest of your life? It's difficult enough managing your career, the house and the kids. Who has time to micromanage their husband's life? If you are the wife of a man with ADD/ADHD this may have struck a painful chord, and for good reason. Beyond the daily difficulties of being on the receiving end of ADD/ADHD, your plight is often ignored by therapists and other professionals. Yes, many books and articles have been written describing the challenges of people with ADD/ADHD, but few focus on those who suffer the most from this condition - namely, their partners. This book is an attempt to do just that; to offer solid education and practical tips to help you deal with the daily frustrations of living with someone who has ADD/ADHD. This book is a helpful guide for women who think their husbands might have ADD/ADHD. Or for women who's husbands have already been diagnosed. George Sachs PsyD and Timothy Norman LCSW offer advice for wives to help their husbands live a successful life with Adult ADD/ADHD. Learn ways to support his growth without enabling him or exhausting yourself. Dr. Sachs is a licensed child and adult psychologist, specializing in the treatment of ADD/ADHD in children, teen and adults. He is founder of the Sachs Center on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, serving individuals and families looking for answers to ADD/ADHD. Why I Wrote This Book Much has been written on managing the symptoms of ADD/ADHD, but these books were almost always directed at the client himself, as if it was up to the person with ADD/ADHD alone to solve his problems and get on with life. Yes, there were chat groups and forums where wives could air their complaints - but very few resources that gave wives tools to take control of their situation by actively helping their husbands deal with their challenges. This book is an attempt to do just that: to bring together in one place a host of information to help wives not only understand their husband's condition, but also to empower them to steer their relationship in a healthier direction. Since coming to this new understanding, I, along with my colleagues at the Sachs Center, have been able to help scores of women gain a new understanding of ADD/ADHD and how they can transform their marriages from a living nightmare into a much more peaceful and harmonious state of affairs. As we wrote this book, we reached out to scores of men and women across the country to learn from their experiences. If you have picked up this book, then we both already know you need help - but you must also realize that you are not alone. My sincere hope is that these pages will provide you with the information you need to begin your journey to a healthier and happier life, one that allows you to enjoy the excitement and creativity that first attracted you to your husband without falling victim to the excesses associated with his ADD/ADHD. -- George Sachs PsyD

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of four national book awards! Revised First Edition, 2022 Is It You, Me, or Adult ADHD? has helped thousands of readers worldwide to understand how this highly variable syndrome affects them. Professionals and couples who have elevated their lives with its wisdom recommend it to others. In this highly endorsed, clearly written, and comprehensive guide, Gina Pera guides you in making sense of your own Adult ADHD Roller Coaster. She helps you to: —View ADHD as a variable syndrome affecting individuals, not clones —Realize how a later-in-life ADHD diagnosis creates additional issues —Revise misinterpretations of symptoms, forged long ago, that can thwart progress now —Heal poor coping responses and dysfunctional interaction cycles, as individuals and couples —Implement practical supports to completing routine tasks and reaching long-term goals, with teamwork! —Appreciate how poorly managed ADHD can also negatively affect the spouses and other loved ones. —Delve into "denial's" dual nature — physiological and psychological — and reach through it —Adopt proven approaches that remain extremely rare in clinical settings The science has been clear since 1994, when Adult ADHD was declared a medical diagnosis. Still, the public harbors misconceptions, and that means millions suffer needlessly. That includes millions of couples who can't understand why their lives together are so hard—often despite many attempts at therapy. The simple truth is: Everyone knows someone with adult ADHD. Yet we often misattribute the symptoms to anxiety, depression, or even laziness, selfishness, “addictive personality,” or moodiness. Some assume that ADHD means "little boys with ants in their pants." In fact, childhood hyperactivity goes "underground" as the person matures, resulting in a mentally restless state. Meticulously researched and written by Gina Pera, Is It You, Me, or Adult ADHD? helps you recognizing the behaviors where you least expect them and developing compassion for everyone wrestling with unrecognized ADHD symptoms. It also offers: —Explanations from preeminent experts —Plenty of real-life details —Easy-to-understand, detailed advice on the best treatment options and practical solutions. The revolutionary message is one of hope for millions of people—and a joyous opportunity for a better life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since ADHD became a well-known condition, decades ago, much of the research and clinical discourse has focused on youth. In recent years, attention has expanded to the realm of adult ADHD and the havoc it can wreak on many aspects of adult life, including driving safety, financial management, education and employment, and interpersonal difficulties. Adult ADHD-Focused Couple Therapy breaks new ground in explaining and suggesting approaches for treating the range of challenges that ADHD can create within a most important and delicate relationship: the intimate couple. With the help of contributors who are experts in their specialties, Pera and Robin provide the clinician with a step-by-step, nuts-and-bolts approach to help couples enhance their relationship and improve domestic cooperation. This comprehensive guide includes psychoeducation, medication guidelines, cognitive interventions, co-parenting techniques, habit change and communication strategies, and ADHD-specific clinical suggestions around sexuality, money, and cyber-addictions. More than twenty detailed case studies provide real-life examples of ways to implement the interventions.

Book excerpt: "The ADHD Marriage Workbook: A User-Friendly Guide for Improving Your Romantic Relationship" If you are one of the millions of people with adult attention deficit disorder, you ve probably noticed its adverse effects on your romantic relationships. For example, your spontaneity, which was so attractive at the start of your relationship, may later seem like a lack of dependability, straining the patience of your partner. Or maybe your partner is frustrated by your inability to communicate clearly. Or perhaps you suspect that your irritability and lack of interest in your partner s needs are the result of the difficulty you have staying focused. Psychotherapist Michael Bell understands. A professional counselor specializing in adult ADD, Bell has the disorder himself and has designed the skills-building steps in "The ADHD Marriage Workbook" especially for short attention spans. This concise and engaging workbook contains an array of solution- focused techniques that will help you stop avoiding the problems that sabotage your relationships, face the intimacy issues that frustrate your partner, and begin to do the work you need to do to build a happy, lasting love. Michael T. Bell, Ph.D., has been in private mental health practice since 1999, working primarily with adults and children with ADHD spectrum disorders. In "The ADHD Marriage Workbook, " he draws on his clinical experience as well as his personal history as an adult with ADD, helping him to develop the most useful and practical exercises. His goal in writing this workbook has been to help couples affected by ADHD spectrum disorders develop fulfilling relationships. Michael currently serves as the director of child, family, and prevention services at Rockbridge Community Services in Lexington, Virginia, and is adjunct professor of psychology at Northern Virginia Community College. He has been married to his wonderful wife, Anita since 1993. They live in Stafford, Virginia, with their two boys, Brady and Brice. "(The ADHD Marriage Workbook was originally published as You, Your Relationship and Your ADD)" "

Book excerpt: Can no longer cope with your partner's behavior? Do you feel like your partner is beyond redemption? Do you feel like there is nothing you can do to save your relationship? Do you feel like your partner made your life a misery? You are not alone There are lots of couples where one or both partners have ADHD If any of this sounds familiar to you or if you feel like you just can't seem to make things work in your relationship, then you've come to right place. But First, A Warning: Before we go further, let me make something abundantly clear: This workbook does not contain a "magic wand" that will bring you instant answers without having to do any work. What I'm about to share with you takes both time and effort and has worked wonders for me and my private clients. And I believe it can help you too. The exact process I'll be sharing with you has taken several of my clients from a state of frustration and feeling "stuck", to crystal clarity as to what they should do. So with that said, let me tell you... Let's get real, ADHD is intense, it can wreck relationships and if you're like most people, you probably have little or no experience on how to make your relationship work with ADHD, because living with ADHD is unlike anything you've probably ever experienced before. Look, there a lot of books and materials out there about relationships and frankly there's no shortage of advice on radio television and internet, but come on, let's be honest, most of that advice is watered down and recycled thinking that frankly just doesn't have any application to couples with ADHD. I'm sure you've heard the comments like: "oh honey I'm sorry I just forgot" or "what's the big deal?" or "why are you so upset?". Sometimes it can seem like it's just easier to do everything yourself than to live so much chaos but you don't have to live this way forever. Many couples tried traditional therapy, pastoral counseling, coaching but still no improvement. The fact is these couples are miserable because they are using the wrong principles in their relationship. People with ADHD really do think and feel very differently from their non ADHD counterparts. The sooner you accept that fact the quicker you'll be on the road to getting real result in your relationship. Here's a fraction of what you're getting... - How the Non-ADHD Partner Handle the Relationship - Adult ADHD & Relationships - Effective Communication Strategies - Co-occurring conditions with ADHD - How to Communicate with a Person with ADHD - Curbing Impulsivity and Money Issues - Managing Emotions - The Power of Encouragement and ADHD - Making ADHD your superpower - The Role of Unconscious Shame in ADHD Symptoms - Questions and Answers What's Holding You Back? -"I'm afraid of really hearing the truth." My book is designed with YOU in mind, and all of the information is delivered to you in a loving, gentle manner. You will never be put down by me, you will feel confident and supported! - "I'm not ready to do anything just yet. I'll get it when I'm ready to take action." This book doesn't force you to do anything you're not ready to do. You have all the time in the world to complete it, and you do it on your terms and at your speed.

Book excerpt: This workbook is different from other books about attention deficit disorder, because it was written from the perspective of a non-ADD partner. These pages don't focus on taking care of your ADD spouse or making your relationship work. They are about taking care of yourself. Consequently, as you become healthier and happier, your partner may reap the benefits and your relationship could get better. The main message of this book is that sometimes it's okay and even imperative to put yourself first. (Or at least second, if you have kids!) Living with and loving a partner with ADD can be tough at times, and you deserve special care and support. This book is for you.

Book excerpt: My name is George Sachs. I'm a clinical psychologist and expert in Adult ADD. I also have Adult ADD so much of what I teach comes from my own personal experience. I have experimented with many methods on the market with much trial and error. Lots of errors I was never satisfied with the books I read on Adult ADD - as the advice was hard to follow and was clearly not created by someone with ADD. The tools, tips and techniques I developed for this 30 Day Online learning program have been field tested by me, and my clients. With great success. Why did I call it the 30 Day Solution? Of course you can't cure Adult ADD, and certainly not in thirty days. But in thirty days you will receive a roadmap to change. This program is just the beginning of a lifetime of learning about your unique symptoms. In thirty days you will learn what critical areas of your life need more attention. Many of my clients have tried medication, hoping for a miracle to cure their worst symptoms. The truth is medication can be effective for some, but most of my clients stop taking it because of the the side effects-and then where are they? No better off than when they first started. That is why I coach them that they need to learn tools and new techniques to better manage their life with Adult ADD. That is what this program does - offers 30 Days of holistic actionable advice that can be implemented immediately. With no negative side effects I believe in a holistic approach that starts with sleep, diet and exercise and includes emotional, relational and spiritual practices to truly overcome Adult ADD. This book deals with more than just tips to become more organized. We examine the impact of a life of untreated Adult ADD, and how that effects self-esteem, relationships and overall success. The key word is "overall." That is our holistic approach, because Adult ADD impacts all areas of one's life. How many times have you bought a paper date planner? hoping that this time you would actually use it I know that the normal advice many so-called experts give to adults with ADD just dont' work. Maybe because those experts don't have Adult ADD. Well I Do. So I know that the typical methods for organization and productivity don't always work for us adults with ADD. That is why I offer "work-arounds." These are field-tested tools, tips and techniques that work for adults with ADD and take into account the unique way that we approach life. I hope that you find the concepts I teach equally helpful and easy to understand. Adult ADD is challenging for oneself and loved ones, but with support and this program, you can overcome some of your worst symptoms and become the person you always knew you could be.

Few, however, have focused on the effects of adult ADHD on relationships and marriages, which makes this a must-read for all of those interested in and working with adults with ADHD.

Hallowell and Ratey answer the questions most frequently asked at their nationwide workshops and seminars, resulting in an easy-to-read reference that covers every aspect of the disorder: from identifying symptoms and diagnosis, to the latest treatment options, as well as practical day-to-day advice on how you or a loved one can live a normal life with ADD. Whether you are a patient, parent, teacher, or health-care professional, Answers to Distraction will help those whose ADD has caused persistent problems in school, at work, and in relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 100,000 Copies Sold! Organizing books fall short of addressing the unique needs of adults with ADD. They fail to understand the clinical picture of ADD and how it impacts the organizing process often making their advice irrelevant or frustrating when put into application. Books about ADD may address organization/disorganization but do so in a cursory fashion and on a very small scale in what are usually long books on the subject. This is a book that has ADD-Friendly advice with the ADDer in mind. This collaboration brings forth the best underlying understanding with the most effective and practical remedy from ADD experts in two important fields -- professional organization and clinical psychology. Finally, it offers organizing advice that ranges from self-help to utilizing the help of non-professionals, to using professional assistance. Thus it permits the reader to decide where they are at personally in the organizing process, and what level of support will be most beneficial to their unique situation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, causes problems with physical activity levels, focusing on family and control of impulses. Even though some people prefer to believe that men and women who are overly active or cannot focus on family have behavioral issues that can be corrected with good discipline, studies show that ADHD is a real condition, possibly with genetic or environmental causes. The Center for Disease Control recognizes ADHD is one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders that are diagnosed in both adults and children. Though many adults often have difficulties sitting still or focusing on tasks, those with ADHD can lead to progressively more serious problems at work and at home. Not all men and women with ADHD have the same degree of physical activity. Some may have a low degree of activity, while others may be highly active. Symptoms include chronic daydreaming, fidgeting, constant motion, inability to listen, inability to sit quietly, problems taking turns, speaking out of turn and difficulty paying attention. Researchers believe ADHD may have a strong genetic component because of their work with twins. Other proposed causes may be exposure to lead, alcohol and tobacco use during pregnancy, low birth weight, premature delivery and brain injury. No research concludes that poverty, family problems, and too much television or consuming large amounts of sugar causes ADHD, though these factors may exacerbate symptoms. These are serious problems that can seriously affect your marriage. If you see any of these symptoms in your spouse or partner you need to pick up a copy of this book : The Effect ADHD Has On Marriage by Terence A. Williams that will help you not only understand your spouse better but alleviate a lot of the stress you are going through.

Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking and controversial book, behavioral neurologist Dr. Richard Saul draws on five decades of experience treating thousands of patients labeled with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder—one of the fastest growing and widely diagnosed conditions today—to argue that ADHD is actually a cluster of symptoms stemming from over 20 other conditions and disorders. According to recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 6.4 million children between the ages of four and seventeen have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. While many skeptics believe that ADHD is a fabrication of drug companies and the medical establishment, the symptoms of attention-deficit and hyperactivity are all too real for millions of individuals who often cannot function without treatment. If ADHD does not exist, then what is causing these debilitating symptoms? Over the course of half a century, physician Richard Saul has worked with thousands of patients demonstrating symptoms of ADHD. Based on his experience, he offers a shocking conclusion: ADHD is not a condition on its own, but rather a symptom complex caused by over twenty separate conditions—from poor eyesight and giftedness to bipolar disorder and depression—each requiring its own specific treatment. Drawing on in-depth scientific research and real-life stories from his numerous patients, ADHD Does not Exist synthesizes Dr. Saul's findings, and offers and clear advice for everyone seeking answers.
