Dirty Laundry

An honest guide to help you understand your ADHD, at home and in relationships.

ADHD can turn everyday things such as cleaning, timekeeping, money, messages and personal hygiene into sources of disproportionate shame. Dirty Laundry begins with those realities and asks a more useful question: what happens when judgement is replaced by understanding?

Drawing on Roxanne Emery’s experience of adult ADHD and Richard Pink’s perspective as her partner, the couple behind @ADHD_Love combine candid personal stories with practical strategies for life at home and in relationships. They explore time blindness, hyperfocus, losing things, task avoidance, finances and communication, showing how support can work with an ADHD brain rather than against it.

For adults with ADHD, the book offers ways to recognise shame without letting it define them. For partners, parents, friends and family, it explains how patience, structure and honest communication can reduce conflict and make practical support more effective.

Funny, vulnerable and useful, this is a guide to living with ADHD without turning every difficulty into a moral verdict.
