We are switching doctors right now because of a move. The New doctor is having my husband fill out an ADHD questionnaire before his appointment. It's close to 10 pages so I am helping him out. I didn't realize how hard this would be. He has been in tears several times and we are only half way through. It's asking about traffic tickets and work history and his childhood. Ugh. It kills me to watch him cry and call himself stupid when he sees it all in writing.I feel like this doctor might help but this is hard.We are taking a break from it for now but I just had to do something with these emotions because he needs me to keep it together for him. Blah!
Hang in there sev15...

The only way to bring positive change is to identify and deal with the present reality. So many of us have issues that either we don't recognize, recognize and want deal with; ( to painful) .Or, we always us the excuse; I wouldn't be this way if it wasn't for you...So a counselor can have some success if he can get us to look inward and deal calmly with our own actual reality without blame or making excuses..
We humans are all messed up to some degree, but the trick to healing and moving past it, is accepting it and owning it as our own...

There's no way really for him to get help w/o the truth being "out there"....for your husband to see (and accept) and for the healthcare person to see and treat.
He had his appointment monday
