My ADHD boyfriend can't stop looking at other women when we go out.  Sometimes he barely looks at me.  He also watches a lot of porn.  Does that make a man ogle women?

Would medication help him stop?  Would not looking at porn make him stop ogling women?

I appreciate any advice.

I am engaged to a man with moderate ADHD.  I don't know if that really counts because we haven't been married yet, but after reading Melissa Orlov's book, I felt like my life was in print.  I love my fiance more than words could ever say.  It is the first time I have been in a relationship where I feel respected and loved unconditionally.  Everything started out GREAT at the beginning of our relationship but then we started fighting all the time.  I mean ALL THE TIME.  Our days became measured not by how happy we were each day but if we didn't fight.

I am trying to understand ADD better.  DH has tinnitus.  He says he needs to have the tv AND the radio on different channels loudly all night and all the lights on.   I would think that an ADD person would need the quiet to be calm.  Anyone else need to sleep with noises going on?  Or is this just a tinnitus thing?

My DH has the tendency to continue along the path of destroying our relationship with his (anger issues),I just cannot comprehend as to why he gets sooo mad over"Everything" it is hard and nerve recking enough already to deal with his ADHD, but the anger issues is the main problem with us.one example:

My spouse, who has ADHD, depression, and anxiety, seems to me to once again be floundering.  It became clear to me on one of his rare days at home (he spends several days a week at his elderly parents' home) that his symptoms are interfering with his well-being and functioning:  he is having problems sleeping, he doesn't get anything done when he's at home (I do all the chores), and his room is a mess.

I am happy to read your posts. All the posted it until now by women are married with ADDers, but this is a very important roll in women’s life, to be a MOTHER. My mother in Law it is not diagnosed, but I suspect she has ADD, She basically has the same basic discipline difficulties like my DH. She has difficulties of going to bed early,  waking up, getting up early (after 11 am or later) etc.

A little background:  My husband was diagnosed with ADHD as a child, but was never treated or medicated.  He finally went to a counselor and got on Adderall earlier this week, but I am already at a breaking point.  He took the Adderall for 3 days, said it was making him nervous and stopped taking it.  He now got Concerta called into the pharmacy, but it requires pre-authorization through our insurance so he won't have it until next week some time.  Over the course of our 8 year relationship, married for 5, he has been selfish, mean, verbally abusive, stayed out all night partying after our

I'm happy to say that my bf and I have had a wonderful week together.  This doesn't sound like a huge feat, but trust me it is.  We usually can't go more than two days without getting in an argument where hurtful things are said.  We have been taking care of each other, snuggling, working together, and saying nice things to each other this whole week.  It makes me feel very close to him and reminds me of why we are still together.  I know we really love each other and both want to make things work.  The test will be tonight.  We are going out with my family and they are surprising me with s

I am analyzing and contemplating what to do,I am feeling like calling it quit's.I am realizing that he is not "just"ADHD,but also a train of disorder's!! I read and read online and books also, I have been doing researches and so far I have come up with this:

OMG, I don't know where to begin, but I will start like this,
