How Many Relationships Do You Need?
Q:
"Can a woman with ADD be satisfied with only one relationship, or does she require more than just one man can possibly give?"
A:
Yes, people with ADHD can remain in one relationship. While ADHD brings an additional set of challenges into a relationship, the challenges do not need to be considered overwhelming. All long-term relationships take time, energy, understanding and effort to grow and maintain. Medication management, counseling skill training and education are often the pieces used to help support ADHD relationships.
