My husband gets all excited when Friday comes,he can't wait for me to come spend the weekends with him and I love that but,one problem,when it's time to go home on Sundays he gets all upset and throws mood swings and wants to get into serious fights over nonsense.There is nothing we can do at this moment to change our living situation ,and because I am a mother of two kids ,I have to get back home to do my motherly duties,it's a must..ADHD or not what is so hard in understanding that I have my life as is and in a certain way the same way he met me..Living with him is a no no as I explained

I am fed up of my spouse's mood swings.How long again before he realizes how uncomfortable he makes me feel?Every afternoon after work he would pick me up to go to his apartment where I would be his maid.I would do his dirty dishes from the night before,sweep the floor,hey a little bit again and I would be turned into cindarella,and when I am there he is always passing me straight or talking to me cold and dry or in parables.Then he tries to put on a fake smile so he won't be noticed.ADHD was the sad story starting with his ADHD mother,according to what he told me,when he was much younger g

I really need advice...I can't go to any friends or family anymore.  They r tired of my problems with my adhd husband, so I have no support system.   I have 3 kids and don't want to put them through divorce.  But I don't want to be in this marriage anymore.  I also gave up my career to raise kids and have no job options.

When I first started dating my husband we were very much in love,Well who is not,love at first sight,yep that kind of thing actually happened to me.Well his loving kindness went straight to my heart and before getting to know him properly,we got married,not a legal marry,but a nika.Nika is a marriage consent between you and the person and a priest and two witnesses.I took him home to live with myself,my two kids and my mom.I live in a well peaceful,comfortable,loving home and since we were just starting of as newly weds I never thought of the damages it could cause my family.I never knew wh

I sometimes wonder if my husbands high sex drive is a related issue of ADHD,he won't stop at it and when i'm not around he turns to the porn movies.His high sex drive is becoming a little to overbearing sometimes, and I could use a little break, but he won't stop...I am sure that I am not the only person with this problem, but if I say it's too much,it really is too much.

I appreciate the book very much. It helped me a lot to know that other couples were struggling with the same type of issues. But it has also made me sad, and I have not finished reading it. The sadness is because it seems like my situation depends too much on what, if anything, my ADHD partner does to deal with the ADHD. I do not want my happiness to depend on someone else's actions which I cannot change.

My husband would come home from work always super tired,I am very tired,tired of him always tired...My work starts at the most unreasonable time in the morning because I am the owner of a small business and it's very demanding..I have to get up so early and start my day when the world sleeps..and I have been doing it for quit some time now.But I am not always tired ,I have my rough days, but I figure them out alone.Not so with my husband ,when he comes home every single day since I know him over a year now he complains and complains,his feet hurts,his back,his head,his everything.And i woul

My husband left the house at 10 a.m. for a 10 a.m. appointment and I did not say anything. 

I've been reading posts on this site for a few days now and it's been so helpful seeing I'm not alone in what I'm dealing with... but I'm completely at a sticking point right now.

What do you do when your spouse denies that ADD is even real, let alone that he fits the description to a t?

There can be many parallels but I know that what's going on is not explained enough by ADD/ADHD. I have for some time believed that my mother has Aspergers; I am told this makes me 'Aspie friendly'. I must have signed up for this unconsciously...Now I think it is all over - the relationship - at my instigation, but it's still important to find the right framework in which he/we/our family can view this. I have been told that it's very important to find specialists who have particular experience with Asperger's (just as it is with ADD/ADHD).
