My husband is the ADHD one in our marriage. I've been close to "done" many times, but I also took vows and we continue with our mantra that "divorce is not an option." Married for almost 21 years, together for 26+. Two teenagers, a dog, and two cats. He was diagnosed in 2004.
My husband has finally agreed to get ADHD testing (because we almost separated because of it!). Any suggestions on what is the best kind of person to go to for testing, are some test better than others? I saw a local place advertised that does testing $150 for initial consult, then they also do marriage counseling which would also benefit us. Any advice, is it best to get testing from a place u can also get counseling? etc, thnx
Ok it has been 7 days since Dh and I have begun (what I call) our in house separation. And what a week it has been! Things started off kind of rough for me, but as I began to take control of my life things have certainly improved.
Ok so I am deployed and found out that ADD has affected my marriage in very bad way. I love my wife so much and I dont know what to do now. How do you communicate and fix a marriage when you are deployed to Iraq. I am reading books and now know what I did wrong, but I am so afraid of going back to me not paying attention to her, being to distracted. Will meds and therapy help in those areas, Any Ideas, or suggestions
