Relationships with ADHD and Nice Guy Syndrome

New video out today!

ADHD and spectrum issues keep coming up in my research. There's a high search volume for how these issues affect relationships, so they get a special mention in today's video.

Some of the ADHD communication issues we'll talk about (I have most of these)

  • Forgetfulness - I can’t hold two thoughts in my head
  • Impulsiveness - I act before i think, especially with annoying issues
  • Anxiety - I don’t any more, but this used to rule my life
  • Emotional outbursts - built up tension and overwhelm
  • Talk too much - more social anxiety than ADHD, comes from fear of losing their interest
  • Can’t pay attention / listen - zoning out, do it all the time
  • Disorganised - particularly bothersome to neat people, which we always end up with
  • Feel lost, ignored, unloved - side effect of comms issues and resentment on both sides

Then we'll explore what these look like in a relationship when combined with Nice Guy Syndrome issues

  • Covert contracts
  • Alexithymia
  • Pukes
  • Fixing rather than support
  • Unsolicited advice
  • Constant manouvering instead of spontaneous honesty
  • Pretending to be ok and pretending to listen etc.
