First, Tschudi expands our understanding of the impact of ADHD on individuals and relationships. She then offers practical and specific coping strategies to empower couples with the skills needed to manage the challenges of ADHD together."<br> --Dennis Lowe, PhD, professor of psychology at Pepperdine University and Emily Scott-Lowe, PhD, director of social work at Pepperdine University</p><br><br><p>"ADD and ADHD have damaged many relationships. Partners of people with this complicated issue sometimes take it personally or don't understand that their mate may not be in control of his or her own thought processes. Tschudi's book will help couples make sense of this misunderstood dilemma and assist them in making healthy choices about their own relationships."<br> --Barton Goldsmith, PhD, author of <em>Emotional Fitness for Couples</em></p><br><br><p>"Romantic partners of adults with ADHD need good information--they <em>really</em> need it. Fortunately, Tschudi's new book, <em>Loving Someone with Attention Deficit Disorder</em>, is loaded with good information. Not only is she herself the romantic partner of someone with ADD, she is also a therapist, and that clinical wisdom shines through. If you are the romantic partner of someone with ADD, you owe it to yourself to read this book."<br> --Ari Tuckman, PsyD, MBA, author of <em>Understand Your Brain, Get More Done; More Attention, Less Deficit</em>; and <em>Integrative Treatment for Adult ADHD</em></p><br><br><p>"Susan Tschudi has written a helpful book from the perspective of a non-ADD spouse. <em>Loving Someone with ADD</em> not only provides facts and refutes myths about ADD, but also gives hope to spouses and partners. She emphasizes important topics such as addiction, conflict resolution, and self-care. I recommend this book to couples in relationships wherein either one or both of the partners are affected by ADD."<br> --Stephanie Moulton Sarkis, PhD, author of <em>10 Simple Solutions to Adult ADD, Making the Grade with ADD, ADD and Your Money</em>, and <em>Adult ADD: A Guide for the Newly Diagnosed</em></p><br><br>"This book will be immensely helpful if you are married to someone with ADHD.
