Sainnah: the impact of ADHD on the couple
87. Sainnah: the impact of ADHD on the couple
I started a series of 2 episodes on conditions that can seem like “obstacles” to being in a relationship, to show that a couple can help, without falling into a rescuer-victim relationship or codependency. In episode 86 of S’ouvrir à l’amour, we talked about anxiety.
In episode 87, I am going to talk about a condition I know well: ADHD, because my husband and my son are diagnosed with ADHD.
Discover my conversation with Sainnah, a certified ADHD coach, in which we talk about the challenges a couple can face when one of the partners has ADHD.
You can find Sainnah on Instagram and on her website.

Going further
Your relationship needs care.
To maintain the connection, spending good moments together is not enough. It is important to resolve the underlying conflicts to avoid sweeping too much dust under the rug, which causes the couple to disconnect and each partner to feel misunderstood by the other.
This is what you learn in my program Cultivating Love. You can take the Day of the Past option, a day of Somatic Deprogramming: a psycho-corporal practice to deprogram the automatic patterns of the nervous system and reprogram new relational reflexes.
