Summary: A.D.D. & Romance Finding Fulfillment in Love, Sex, & Relati
Review: A.D.D. & Romance is a "Must Read" if you have Attention Deficit Disorder and you are involved in a romantic relationship!
This easy to read book is a "gold mine" of practical information that can be used by folks who have ADD as well as their partners to enrich their romantic relationship(s). Jonathan Scott Halverstadt, M.S. is up to date on the latest research and theory related to attention deficit disorder. He speaks "from the heart" and I guarantee you this book is just "packed with information" that will help you to understand your own romantic behavior and will give you lots of tips and strategies to make the most of your romantic relationship(s). I've read at least ten books on ADD and many of them were very helpful to me. However, A.D.D. & Romance by Jonathan Scott Halverstadt, M.S. is by far the best book I've read on the subject of ADD and romance.

Summary: A. D. D. & Romance by Jonathan Halverstadt
Review: ADD & Romance is one of the best ADD books that I have ever read. Like anyone with ADD, I had to read it three to be able to remember it but that is me not the book because it was well written. The suggestions in the books have had a very positive on my life and marriage. It is a must read for anyone with ADD and anyone thinking of marring someone with ADD.

Summary: Extremely Enlightening
Review: I am engaged to be married to someone with A.D.D. I am so grateful for the information in this book. The book has helped me to realize that some of the behaviors I found confusing are really not about me. They are about A.D.D. The education I received by reading this book has helped to enrich my relationship with my fiance.

Summary: helpful in understanding how &why i function as i do
Review: i found this book to be extremely helpful. everything i've read deals with what makes someone add and ways to deal with add (ie. meds and orginational skills). being that i was only 17 when i first read it, i did not apply it to any kind of romantic relationship but to realtionships with my parents and my friends. more importantly it made me very aware of some the bad, hurtful habits i have (like interupting) that i didn't even relieze 1)that i was doing it and 2) that they might really be hurting people and my relationships with them.

Summary: ADD & Romance: A Great Job Tackling a Tough Topic
Review: Jonathan Halverstadt reaches deep to address a very difficult subject. Following an overview of how ADD plays out in relationships, he quickly moves to areas we often prefer to not think about: How can someone with ADD possibly be responsible and accountable in their relationships. Using many examples to address these issues in sensitive and practical terms from the ADD and non-ADD partner perspective, he covers many strategies that range from medication to therapy to practical hints. Most valuable is his understanding of what it takes to turn a relationship around and make it thrive! This should be the textbook used in your next class.

Summary: You will be so glad you read this book!
Review: My "spiritual/life partner" and I are both ADD. My former boyfriend sent me this book, as he had discovered his ADD had affected our prior relationship. I read the book and learned about my current partner, as well as myself. It saved our relationship at several critical points. It helped convince him to try ADD medication, which are critical. Now we have confidence in the long-term success of our relationship as never before. We have stability now. We also have both experienced remarkable improvements in all our other relationships -- professional and personal. The book is easy and entertaining reading. We keep it for review. I have recommended it to others who are ready to discover life can be much easier than you can imagine, and their own potential for success in relationships.

Summary: Some good advice
Review: This book offers a basic understanding of how ADD affects relationships. It's a good book for a spouse or partner of a person with ADD to read. It's also not a bad book for an adult newly diagnosed with ADD.
