In this episode of Phil Phails, I sit down with ADHD relationship therapist and author, Anita Robertson, LCSW, to delve into the unique challenges of loving and living with adult ADHD. We discuss her book, "ADHD and US: A Couples Guide to Loving and Living with Adult ADHD," and explore why ADHD relationships often face difficulties. From executive functioning to emotional intelligence, discover the insights that can transform how we navigate ADHD in romantic relationships.

I was going to comment something negative and then I saw that you’re a small time creator. So instead: keep it up

[@PhilPhails]

Thanks! Your name checks out 😀 I'm open to feedback or constructive criticism

@@PhilPhails the only thing I was going to say was that, in this clip, there is a lot of filler content without much meat. I have never seen your channel before so I don't know how you typically create videos. But about 6-7 minutes in I felt like what was promised based on the title and thumbnail was not delivered. To be clear, this has nothing to do with you and is all about the guest.
But nonetheless, keep up the good work. I've done a few successful YT channels and FB pages and the reality is if you just keep doing it, you'll make it.
And if you ever need a professional editor, let me know.

Thank you!

​@@WholesomeHenri Weird, I got the exact opposite impression. The title I see is "ADHD Love Struggles Uncovered: How to Fail at Relationships" and the lady comes in listing several relationships struggles. So for me, the title and content for the entire video where a complete match. The video really grabbed my attention!
Did the video have a different title before?
