@kc5jck: Well, I have gone and bought the Kindle version of Melissa Orlov’s book so I could read the page you were talking about, and then another book by her and Hallowell about marriage in the age of distraction, skimmed through most of the first book, emailed 5 screenshots of a particularly poignant chapter to my partner, reflected on my previous marriage through Orlov’s writing and shed a couple of tears.

All that hyperfocus “work” but I don’t have anything useful for you. Myself, I tend to go on monologues about ADD…probably leaving very little room for him to learn about it for himself. And rarely talk about it with anyone else.
