Hi, everyone, my name is Rebecca and I believe my spouse may have ADD or ADHD. After being married for five years (not a first marriage for either of us) I am completely at a loss to understand some of his behavior. I feel like a tornado touches down sometimes with no warning at all. I am exhausted and hope, by reading some of the information here, to learn some types of skills that I can use to cope with this situation. I don't want to leave him but honestly, I can't see living another 20-30 years this way.
Any advice is appreciated. I am going to do some reading and see what I can learn. Thank you for your support.

If I wasn't financially tied to my H, I would have left a long time ago.
I would not go thru any of this willingly. I have little to no respect for my H. He's self-centered, too easily angered, unstable, etc.
I can't entertain or even make plans that include him because likely the plans would fall thru or H would behave badly.
If I were you, I'd get out.
