Episode 314: Communicating with Autistic Partner & ADHD Shame

Hello, friends! What a week. I'm alive and well, but unfortunately things have been a bit heavy over here. I start off with a little personal update and then into the following great questions:

• My partner is autistic and talks constantly about her trauma. It's too much for me. What can I do?
• I am a woman with ADHD and have shame and anxiety because of it. How can I rebuild my self-concept?

As always, you can send me questions to [e-mail] and find the show notes for this episode at http://duffthepsych.com/episode314
