It’s a scary proposition – to share your deepest self with another person. And that person is usually the one who knows you best, therefore knows exactly how to hurt you! Not fun. The good news is that intimacy and vulnerability are skills we can learn, especially if we have a safe place to practice them. Dr. Aaron Dodini shares resources that can enrich your ADHD relationship and create a stronger bond
