I don't know who hurt Gina, but she's really mean

Both my husband and I have been diagnosed with ADHD in the last 6 months. As such, making sense of our symptoms and figuring both where the ADHD starts and we as people end is challenging. When the author takes such a dim view of people with ADHD, it really becomes difficult to listen through what is being said where every symptom or issue bring mentioned make you feel like a burden on your partner, or that your partner is a problem to be solved. There's no room for compassion in this book. Also, the chapters are not labelled in the app and so as I've done some reading already on the causes and presentations of ADHD, I can't skip the chapters that address these topics - especially since there's over 14 hours of content.
I really wanted to enjoy this, truely. But it just leaves me feeling worse about my situation and makes me wonder what hope there really is to turn my family's life around especially considering we were diagnosed so late in life. I'll look for a title next that will both constructively help while not making me feel like a burden heaped onto those around me, making me feel even more isolated than before I started listening.
