I watched this video and it really hit home for me. One of the biggest struggles I have had in my life is trying to feel like people understand what I am trying to say. That could be because I am not able to communicate clearly/effectively or because they just don’t get it. This video is short and definitely worth a watch with some tips to help you deal with these frustrating situations.
One tip I will leave from my own personal experience is that one of the most important things you can have that makes a relationship work if you have ADHD is someone who understands you and takes the time to understand how you are/function. If you have a partner who doesn’t take the time to understand you or refuses to then it may be time to talk to a professional. In the event they won’t do it/won’t work with you then it may be time to move on. Life is too short to stay in a relationship where the other person refuses to try and improve. This doesn’t mean that they will *always* understand you but you both should be on a road to understanding how each other communicates. Once communication breaks down or fails it is just a matter of time before the relationship will end.
With that being said I hope you all enjoy the post and my experience.
