Many couples in neurodiverse relationships feel torn between staying together or separating. The non-ADHD partner may feel exhausted by repeated slips, while the ADHD partner can feel attacked by constant complaints. Over time, this dynamic can create deep emotional wounds.

The key to change lies in shifting perspective. ADHD is like being left-handed in a world built for right-handed people. When couples adapt the “tools” they use to communicate and live together, they create space for compassion and consideration rather than frustration and blame.

Children may not know the legal details of a divorce, but they quickly notice changes at home. They are often aware of what feels fair or unfair, and when given space to speak, they reveal just how deeply these shifts affect them.

Thrive offers psychoeducational workshops on a wide range of topics for companies prioritising their employees’ mental health and well-being. The sessions are designed to educate participants on a specific subject or presenting concern and provide them with tools and resources to help manage those concerns.

In this sample interactive session on growing self-worth and self-compassion, all team members come to identify what is blocking our self-compassion and determine a plan for developing it moving forward.

Parents never set out to harm their children, but it is easy to lose sight of the impact our behaviours have when life feels overwhelming. Many parents simply do not realise how their actions are affecting their child until someone helps them see it clearly. Full episode available now.

This week on Thrive With Us, we sit down with Michelle Estekantchi, M.Ed. and Madeleine Mendy, Partner and Head of Law at Bin Sevan Advocates & Legal Consultants, for a grounded and compassionate conversation on co parenting after separation. We explore the emotional realities children face, the legal complexities parents navigate, and the patterns that make cooperation harder or easier.

If you are navigating co parenting, supporting someone who is, or simply want to understand these dynamics better, this episode offers practical insight from both the clinical and legal perspectives.

Tune in tomorrow.

ADHD is gaining more visibility lately, and I explain it as “A different way of functioning”. This difference shows up everywhere - in family, school, work, friendships, and most deeply, in romantic relationships.
To understand this, let’s borrow from a popular story: The Twilight Saga. When Bella and Edward fell in love, Bella was the “typical” partner while Edward functioned differently, in ways others often judged or misunderstood. Despite the disapproval, they found their rhythm not by insisting on logic or reason, but by learning about each other and accommodating differences. That kind of adjustment - rooted in empathy rather than reason - is often what reinforces relationships touched by ADHD.

Many couples don’t realise that a lot of problems that arise in a relationship could easily be resolved or would not have erupted in the first place had the couple communicated with each other well.

As we welcome a new year, many people feel pressure to make big changes all at once. At Thrive, we encourage a more sustainable approach grounded in evidence and self-compassion, rather than resolutions that place unrealistic expectations on us.

Wellbeing improves when we focus on small, meaningful practices such as:
◾ Checking in with yourself regularly to understand your emotional needs
◾ Setting goals that align with your values, not external pressure
◾ Building supportive routines that strengthen sleep, mood, and stress management
◾ Seeking connection with people and communities that help you feel grounded

The new year does not require a new you. It simply offers a moment to reflect on what supports your mental health and how you want to carry that forward.

Wishing everyone a healthy and balanced start to 2026!
