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).

Hi All,

I'm a non ADD woman with a ADD partner. We have been together for 5 and a half years, living together for all but 2 months in the beginning. We area very loving, happy couple for the majority of the time but during our relationship there has been two major blips.

Hello, just wondered if anyone here could help me please?  I'm currently in the process of becoming fully self employed.  I have dyspraxia and probable adhd although it's yet to be confirmed,  in this country it can take over a year to get a diagnosis.  I want my boyfriend to fully understand the extent of my difficulties but it would take for him to live with me to fully understand their impact.
