[quote=Anonymous]I've never heard the term "time blindness" before. But I do have ADHD. What your husband has is poor planning skills and is easily distracted, and just naming the problems in plain language might be the first step to conquering them. I am religiously on time for things and extremely uptight about planning, and I did this as a fix for my ADHD. I'm a lot less fun now, but I am successful, and now much more on the ball than my wife. It is just a matter of planning ahead of time and sticking to the schedule until it gets to the point that it is second nature. There is no magic. Literally, write out a schedule and get a watch. Things that are natural for "normal" people need explicit planning for the ADHD person. That's just the way it is.[/quote]
