TalkingToo Much
Greetings all!
I am ADHD and I talk too much.
Any suggestions on how to cut the volume of talking I do?
Does this topic deserve its own Forum Topic?

New-Help!
Just wanting to introduce myself, then get right to point.
Many have suspected husband has/had ADHD since childhood, large family so parents didn't seem to notice. Husband then experienced brain injury 7 years ago and since then...downhill slide. We are in couples as well as individual therapy and he is officially diagnosed ADHD with other neurologic problems. Dealing with him is like a drunk 5 year old on speed. He won't admit he even has ADHD, took him two years to agree to testing.

Work or fun?
We seem to have gotten to polar opposites of fun/work linear scale. My married life has been about building, maintaining, planning, working. DH has been about having fun, being personable, sense of humor, talking his way around things, jokes, his own pleasure experience. I slid into workathon when I thought that if he saw me have fun, he would get distracted and think he deserved more fun that he is already having (he has a distorted sense of what is fair) and he would abandon his work and promises and have only fun abandoning more of his share of work.

Outbursts
Hi. My husband has ADHD & he will sometimes get very angry & yell about minor things. I guess what makes it all the more frustrating is that he doesn't seem to feel there is anything wrong with his behavior or any need to apologize for it. If I try to tell him that I don't like the way he is treating me he will go ballistic. So I have to try to ignore it the best I can. But sometimes this makes me feel like I'm doing the wrong thing, like I should somehow be setting better boundaries. Plus, over time it can lead to a build-up of frustration in our relationship.

So many good changes
After visiting this and other forums and sites, and on the verge of leaving my DH at the beginning of last month(not too long, I know..) so many things have changed. I feel like my whole life has been turned upside-down. Turns out most of our issues have been related to lack of communication and lack of sex on my DH's part.

Where is that contract I left on the couch 3 weeks ago?
Is this your house?
Hi,
I just recently discovered this forum and like many of you I am relieved to find that there are so many people in a similar situation to mine and that we can support each other.
My wife is a physician and she has diagnosed herself as ADD. After doing some research, I went from being suspicious that ADD was a made-up condition to really believing that medication for it was my only hope for keeping my sanity. By using this forum I hope to share my struggles and coping strategies and hopefully get some feedback.
Where do I start?
New user. Save your hellos.
Incredibly angry and upset. Been this way for a LONG time. Doesn't matter what I try and do, I get NO WHERE.
So upset and current situation. Have ZERO patience or tolerance for anything. Very P$$#ed off.
Do we get to blame people here? How about we start with GOD WHO MADE ME LIKE THIS! Why don't we start with Him?
All my life I have been F###CKED UP. From the very beginning. Oh, wonderful child. So intelligent. Can't focus. Can't concentrate. "Classic underachiever." (Always loved that one.)
