[quote=Anonymous]It does sound like he needs medical help. But it sounds like the household system you are running is too complicated and time-sensitive for him to comprehend and carry out. You are always running around trying to get stuff done on the list you carry in your head, and he's not able to figure out the method to your madness-- instead, it confuses him more, and he gets depressed because you get mad at him in ways that he perceives as unpredictable and unreasonable. (Even though I'm sure you are totally right to feel the way you do. It's just that the problem is too complicated for him to understand.) You need to select a category of clearly defined responsibilities that are super-simple and obvious, such as taking out the trash. If you are going to do all the managing and thinking, then that makes him the pack mule of the operation. [/quote]
