ADHD & Affairs - redefining our boundaries

I'm working my way through the book, and am curious to hear what's working for other people. My partner has adhd, ocd and is on the autism spectrum - I am too young to be diagnosed with anything but am really trying to understand what boundaries I can have for myself, the relationship and how to cope   

Clinginess

I'm sorry that this isn't a post strictly about a romantic relationship. It is however a post about one of the closest people to me - my best friend, and you have all been so supportive when I went through a breakup with my ADHD boyfriend and I have found so much solace in this forum that I want to seek some advice.

Helping my ADHD wife

Forum: 

Hello everyone!

I am new to this forum and recently started the audible book about this topic. My wife has ADHD and I did not realize how it impacted our marriage. It was as if the book was reading our life stories in how we both react to one another. She has recently started medication to help, but I would love to do more to help her. I have been a big part of the problem in the past and want to do whatever I can to assist her in the process. Thoughts? Ideas? What has worked for you?

 

Thanks!

ADHD husband and poor memory

My husband has adhd. He does not take his medications. He constantly accuses me (and gets so frustrated/mad at me) of not telling him things that I definitely told him or claims something didn't happen that did. He says I have the bad memory. When I show him proof (emails with dates, screenshots, txts etc), he refuses to acknowledge  it and still ignores/avoids me. He sometimes says I live in my own reality I make up and he makes me question my sanity but I really do think it's HIM. I've been asking to go to therapy for two years now, or have him go, but he refuses.
