ADHD & Love - The Truth About ADHD Relationships Nobody Talks About| Michaela Thomas Breaks the Silence

In this live episode, psychologist Michaela Thomas reveals why ADHD makes love so complicated — from being mistaken for flirting when you're just being yourself, to freezing up when you actually like someone, to hearing "you're too much" or "not enough" on repeat.


We dive into the partner's side too: what to do when you feel like you've become their parent, why ADHD gets mistaken for narcissism, and the one question every couple should ask before calling it quits.


If you've ever been called dramatic, selfish, or "too intense" in relationships — or wondered why love feels harder for you than everyone else — this one's for you.


Topics covered:


00:00 Welcome & intro: ADHD and romantic relationships

03:30 "Am I flirting or just being myself?" — ADHD communication in dating

07:15 Why you freeze up when you actually like someone

11:40 ADHD vs narcissism: what's really going on?

16:00 "I feel like their parent" — the partner's perspective

20:10 Couples therapy: why you're going way too late

24:30 Time anxiety vs time optimism (and other neuro type clashes)

29:00 Intention vs impact: when your heart's in the right place but damage still happens

33:30 "You're too hard to love" — unpacking self-worth in relationships

38:00 What every partner of an ADHD person should know
