There are those among us who have a terrible time controlling their anger. Amazingly, in a rage, they may hurt the people they love most. The destructive force behind their anger damages a lot of lives –– the people on the receiving end of the rage –– and their own life. Other people may never express their rage outwardly and yet feel they have to monitor themselves closely to make certain they don’t loose control. New research shows many people with aggressive tendencies have a genetic disorder which causes them to rage. Now there is now hope. This workbook and the corresponding audio tapes will provide valuable information and exercises for helping people to tame the monster within and offer hope for those who have anger and rage that gets out of control.

 A.D.D. & Romance

 

Maintaining a romantic relationship is difficult. Maintaining a relationship where one or both partners have ADD is next to impossible . . . or is it?
In ADD and Romance, Jonathan Scott Halverstadt looks at how attention deficit disorder can damage romantic relationships when partners do not take time, or do not know how, to address this unique problem. The book aims to give people with ADD and their partners the tools they need to build and sustain a more satisfying and fulfilling relationship.

Halverstadt advises on how to foster empathy and respect between partners in an ADD relationship, focusing on issues such as how ADD factors into the selection of romantic partners; the problems ADD creates in relationships; the strengths ADD brings to relationships; the challenges of good communication in an ADD relationship; sexual intimacy and ADD; long-term challenges for ADD relationships; and coping when a relationship fails.

ADD and Romance includes a foreword by Daniel G. Amen, MD, a well known expert on ADD and director of The Amen Clinic For Behavioral Medicine.
