Here are two I’ve heard of but not read, both available from Amazon:
The ADHD Effect on Marriage: Understand and Rebuild Your Relationship in Six Steps by Melissa Orlov (Paperback – Sept. 1, 2010). i heard her interviewed on the radio and it sounds interesting. If I remember she wrote this from personal experience.
Is It You, Me, or Adult A.D.D.? Stopping the Roller Coaster When Someone You Love Has Attention Deficit Disorder by Gina Pera and Russell Barkley (Paperback – Aug. 31, 2008)
Hope you find them helpful. Have you watched the ADD and loving it DVD yet? You might want to watch it together.
Also your anger and resentment for being the “responsible one” is very normal but something you need to deal with in order for your relationship to survive.
Good luck in your journey, hope you find some help in the books.
