I'm just wondering why SO many folks with ADHD, go to bed at 3 in the morning.  Does anyone know why they do this? It seems like a very common trait among ADHD'ers.

Hey all,

live been reading the posts and support with interest and empathy...and honestly a lot of confusion.  

I have aversion to my husband's touch. If I could trust and feel secure and loved within my husband's arms, much of the other stuff would take care of itself.

I just got slapped by reality. .. currently, sitting outside in the very brisk air, hiding ( stealing ) internet under the porch of someone I think I wE dating...til nowish. I think I'm homeless..have no money or anything else... oh yeah, now no adderall.

Really!? ... how is this sneeking up on me!? 

Help! Omg. .. not panicked...jus numb. ..can't be good.

My husband and I have been married seven years this November 2015, we have two small children. I have always worked full time and paid for the majority. My husband has a long history of securing work, being promoted, getting fired. The reasons are always the same, he has had professional coaches, therapists, my support (I am also a therapist), and countless other interventions. The outcome remains the same because of some deep issues he is not ready to resolve around confidence, vulnerbility, work ethic etc.

I have noticed that in the little bit of communication my husband sends my way, he mentions how depressed he is a lot.  I offer sympathy when he says this and I also recommend that he get mental health treatment.  He then sometimes says that mental health treatment won't do any good.  Is it appropriate for me to put up the boundary that I don't want to be the person he dumps on about being depressed?  I think he's trying to use it as a free pass to his dysfunctional (with me) behavior.

I'm not talking about $$$.

I'll start with TIME ....being diagnosed a few months ago and being 45.Yes very late in life, which I believe I can write about the cost of having ADHD as an adult.  I have spent alot of time reading and asking many questions about my disorder. Which has also made me think of all the wasted time in my life. The countless missed opportunities I could have capitalized on if I were more attentive especially to the ones I hold close to me.....my own lil family.

I will never get that back ....ever.
