In this episode of ADHD AF, we're diving deep into one of the most frustrating and misunderstood dynamics in ADHD relationships: The Parent-Child Dynamic. Whether you've found yourself nagging like a mama or feeling like your partner's second parent, you're not alone. You're not crazy. This dynamic is more common than people think, especially in neurodiverse partnerships.

We'll unpack what the parent- child dynamic really is, how it starts, and why it hurts both people involved. I'll share my own experience, how it shows up in my marriage, and what emotional dysregulation, executive dysfunction, and resentment have to do with it. Most importantly, we'll talk about how to shift out of this cycle, with tools, reflection, and real talk.

If you've ever felt more like a caretaker than a lover or partner, or like your independence is always being questioned, this one's for you.
