ADHD and marriage can feel like constant friction… until you build systems that actually work with your brain. In Part 2 of our ADHD & Marriage series, Hala and Rania flip the script and talk about the “treat side” of ADHD in relationships, then share the toolkit that helps couples stop repeating the same fights.

In this episode, we cover:

• The best ADHD traits in love: hyperfocus, humor, spontaneity, emotional depth, and crisis-mode calm
• Communication plus comprehension (talking is not the same as being understood)
• The weekly “Sunday meeting” check-in that saves the relationship (calendar, chores, money, plans)
• Chores and mental load: how to assign clear ownership without nagging or resentment
• Shared systems that actually work for ADHD brains (reminders, calendars, low-friction routines)
• Red flags to run from (shaming, minimizing, “you’re too much,” weaponizing ADHD)
• Green flags to look for (respect, effort, curiosity, learning your brain, emotional safety)

If you’ve ever felt like you and your partner keep having the same argument on repeat, this one is for you.

ADHDiva is us, Hala and Rania, two ADHD diagnosed besties who will be your chaos companions.
