After reading the ADHD and its Effects on Marriage book, I read Attention Deficit Disorder in Adults by Lynn Weiss. It has a good chapter on “living with an ADD person” , as well as chapters on what the ADD person feels, chapters for family & friends, etc. as well as lots of diagnosis questions. There was also a section called The Three Faces of ADD which was helpful to me – I am a combination of the first and third “faces” while my ADD husband is completely different as a two. We both have similar problems with ADHD/ADD, but this helped me understand why he is so quiet and depressed at times and why I am so off the wall and super high energy!
