My boyfriend has ADHD. It’s important that you both work together on participating in your treatment plan so that you both learn and know each other’s quirks and triggers. Relationships between people with mental illness can develop to be either really unhealthy or really great depending on how each person handles themselves and each other. Self-awareness and maturity is key. My boyfriend and I try to make humor out of everything so that we can both call each other out without making each other feel bad, and while bringing awareness to our behaviors at the same time.
I’m a lady with adhd, who’s casually dated a guy with adhd for a while now. One resource that’s been helpful for me is the additudemag website. It’s all about adhd and they have a section specifically for relationships with advice, tools, and it’s helped me see I’m not alone in navigating relationships. Definitely worth checking out.
