My husband was diagnosed with ADHD three years ago at the age of 66. We have been married for 45 difficult years. The diagnosis was a shock and a relief. At least it gave us some answers. He does well on Adderall, but, he will often forget to take it or choose not to take it due to something he may have read on the internet. He has cut himself off from his therapist for refusing to take anti anxiety meds, which he aslo desparately needs. Needless to say, he cannot do anything really.

In the summer of 2019 my now 14 year old daughter was diagnosed with ADHD.  After we had her start seeing a therapist and getting her symptoms under control, my wife of 19 years also started to see a separate therapist.  This therapist, without having met me, and through the descriptions my wife gave was convinced that I was a narcissistic emotional abuser. 

Hi Everybody,

My husband and I have been together since 2010 and married since 2013. We have not gotten diagnosed but I think we both have ADHD. I have been he sole provider since about a year into us dating. He lived with his parents for several years as he did not have a job and I did nt make enough money at the time to support us both as I lived with my mom as well. We have been living together for 6ish years now and I have been the sole provider the whole time.

Hi everyone,

Hello everyone,

So it's been a little over 3 weeks since my relationship ended with my undiagnosed adhd boyfriend. For the majority of of this time I've surprised myself and coped ok, feeling rational about it. However since the weekend it's been hitting me more, and causing a sadness, low mood and dare I say at times regret?! 

Hi all

been reading on here for awhile. I had an adhd boyfriend before and he ended up being abusive so I left him. My current boyfriend also has ADHD. We live together and have been together for over a year. 
 

Every couple has their thing, for my husband and I it's coffee. He didn't drink it much when we first met but I did and yeah. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. We don't roast our own beans or anything (now grinding the beans, umm yeah!) but we like to enjoy a cup in the morning to start the day. He prefers the coffee from the same gas station and really only drinks it at home if it's the 'right' kind like the last sentence. That's a whole thing lol. Its good coffee but I don't mind making it at home.
