A hug box???

So I see that there is a slug box and a big majority of the topics are negative venting. I was wondering if there are any positives as well.It's a little discerning to a new comer to see so many discussions on divorce. Has anyone found a way to make it work with their ADHD spouse?As much as we have been through with his drug abuse and our two children, I would hate to think it was all for nothing because his ADHD issues got in the way.

 

Tired of the battle

I'm so tired of this battle. Husband gets a big project at work and then I am completely ignored and totally forgotten. He will work 12-14 hour days and never send a text I'm left with 2 kids that I homeschool and a baby. Also, I'm a tax accountant and it is tax season. He always gets worse at tax season. And the cherry on top is now that I am sick he is really abrasive and unapproachable. When he is home he complains about everything. I'm tired. Tired just in general and tired of this game.

How do I stay connected sexually?

I few months ago I just let go of my bitterness and resentment. This has been a huge bonus for us in our marriage. But, that isn't enough for my ADD wife. We haven't had sex in 9 weeks. That is partly due to me not initiating. I had to let go in order to find peace and happiness. So let me explain what is happening and perhaps someone has a suggestion for me to try. 

ADHD and losing interest in a relationship

I have been single for 3 years and during this time I have been involved in 4 relationships. Every relationship has a common theem I will work very hard to get the girl of my dream but as time goes by (4 to 6 months) I will get board with the relationship and brake up. 

I was diagnosed with ADHD 5 years ago and take meds but no counseling. 

I am trying to see if this is related to ADHD or my past marriage (a very bad marriage)

Thanks

open relationships, long distance realtionships and hyperfocus

I am going to try and keep this short.

I am 58 male and recently become aware that i have adhd. I have an appointment in late April with a psychologist to look at treatment options.

I have become aware of this because I have been in a long distance relationship,with diagnosed ADHD, that has affected in such a deep way, that my emotions have been out of control. TOTALLY.

ADHD/OCD and the monster in the fridge

Firstly, I'm the one with the disorder(s).  I have OCD, ADHD and a BONUS eating disorder.  In order to be successful, I must have a plan, make advanced preparations and a stable routine.  After 10 years of dating, in my infinite wisdom, I agreed to marry my long time partner and his alcoholism.  We are fast approaching our 2nd anniversary and I am fast approaching a full scale lock me in the psych ward meltdown.
