My husband seems to want to fight about even the smallest of things and won't let things go.  He keeps at me until I am crazy and I dont know how to get him to stop fighting.  My kids are so impacted by all the yelling.  I don't know if it's worth staying married.

I recently saw a clip of Dr Barkley saying that in the new DSM-V there will be no more ADD-PI.  I have been reading for years ppl (mostly with hyperactive diagnosis themselves) yelling about how PI should not be separated from ADHD at all, and I don't get it because my husband has the PI diagnosis and he couldn't appear more different from the hyperactive folks if he tried!

I'm not even sure where to start with this post.  My husband and I have been married for almost 12 years and he has moved out of home.  We also have two great children and everyone is so hurt and confused by his actions.  He has always had the classic ADHD symptoms and never has done anything about it.  Our relationship has intense at first, we were engaged in 7 months and married in a year and half.  We also have our first child by our second anniversary.  He always drank, but I never realized how bad it was.  We moved back to my hometown area and he was determined to make a name for himse

It was a tough decision over which forum I should put this thread in, because it touches several of them...  Here's it goes, because right now its a frustration.

I've had a very stressful few days.  My husband has been at home more (he usually spends four days a week helping his elderly parents) because one of my daughters is about to return to college.  She'll be driving with my husband.  

Hi everyone. I've been reading this forum for a while but I'm still pretty new to all this. I feel like I am running out of options here, so I would really appreciate any help. Sorry for the long message.

My ADD husband and my relationship is non extent anymore. He wants the relationship when he wants, so its on and off all the time and i can't live like this anymore! We don't talk, don't really touch , hardly around and internment unless he wants it. What am i ment to do even when i have tried everything i can think of and tried some stuff from here?

I have given energy and time trying to figure things out since I found this site in March and since my mother died at the end of last year.  I believe I went into a bit of a depression/anxiety and DH withdrew.

To be resilient, I get to let the past go.  Learn from it.  Accept the reality. But rather than live in the resentment of the past or the uncertainty of the future, I am trying to find some balance and peace.

We are always told that if you have a problem, go see your doctor. What do we do when the doctor becomes the problem?

He's by far one of the best things that's ever happened in my life. He's incredibly sweet and caring, and attentive. The thing is, he used to smoke marajuana, but quit because he went to jail. He shaped up for a while but i recently found out he's been doing it again with his friends. We're currently not talking and i feel so betrayed. I know he's impulsive, so i tried to talk it out with him but because of his ADHD he said that he was overwhelmed and couldn't deal with it at that point. I would love to help him get back on the right track. He's a great person and he could go so far.
