Initially this was over the use of the word ‘normal’ – and now I’m all for a coffee with dairy milk after your vaginal birth. There's such a thing as personal responsibility, and I feel like there's a fair chunk of this advice that absolutely is not that. My husband had a lot of the same feelings and it has helped me reading Richard's points to him as well as Roxe.

The truth is, a lot of us ADHDers struggle with 'basic' things such as personal hygiene and cleanliness (amongst other things), but this is the first time I've ever seen anyone go into real depth and talk about not only those struggles, but WHY we have them, as well as what we can do to help! I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about themselves or those they love with ADHD. Told from the perspective of the person who is blessed and cursed with a neuro-divergent brain and the person who loves and supports them. How can you as a partner, parent, or friend better understand your neurodivergent loved one's way of moving through. If you're unpartnered, it might not be as helpful, but will still give you language and validation, which is good too, obviously, but I would guess than the super nonjudgemental partner thing (which, let's face it, isn't all that common) might make you feel a little lonely.I liked this book, which discusses the several symptoms of ADHD Rox deals with and how she and her husband Rich navigate them. I’d recommend this book for anyone struggling with deep despair caused by the ADHD in yourself, your relationships or your family; it’s full of hope, genuine compassion and practical tips. How can you as a partner, parent, or friend better understand your neurodivergent loved one’s way of moving through the world?

Do you always feel misunderstood by the people close to you and find that they get frustrated by your behavior? If you have ADHD —or love somebody who does— DIRTY LAUNDRY will change your life, and your relationships.There are just some aspects in our relationship that one of us will *always* handle, and you know what it works for us with no overwhelm!

Rich and Rox manage to address 10 adhd symptoms in the book, first from her perspective, shared with vulnerability and including tips for people with adhd on shaking off the shame, then from Rich's perspective, as the supportive NT partner. I have a great partner too and we are working on how we deal with some things together- we might use some of your tips.

That whole "your ADHDer" thing that's said in almost every paragraph of the book was very painful to read. Brakowało mi podkreślenia tego, jak ważna może być profesjonalna pomoc i z jakiegoś powodu nie było ANI SŁOWA o lekach. For me, it was just a little too forced helplessness/burden-shifting to be perfect, but for what it is, it's worth the read.
