Online Partners of Someone with ADHD Peer Support Group

Monthly Online Peer Support Group for a Partner of Someone with ADHD

We understand that romantic relationships with someone with ADHD comes with many joys and at times may present challenges people in your circles may not understand. ADHD WA is excited to be launching an online peer support group in 2024 for the partners of someone with ADHD (formally diagnosed, or not formally diagnosed).

This online group is a safe, supportive, and confidential environment for people in romantic relationship with someone who has ADHD. It’s an opportunity to openly share (if you want to) and connect with other partners who genuinely understand what you’re going through.

For many, a support group reduces the feeling of isolation and creates an opportunity for discussion. By sharing ideas and information with others, many people are able to find new ways of coping. Most people who attend feel that the emotional support they both give and receive is of great benefit.

Our Online Parent Support Group is a safe place for people to discuss personal matters and recordings are not permitted. All participants must have their camera and microphone on in order to participate. Please do not be offended if we ask you to turn your camera on and unfortunately you will be asked to leave if you are unable to do so. This is a sign of respect to all participants and the privacy of the group.
