[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he bothered by the lost  and forgotten items or only you?  If he wants to improve, he must make a pack list (you can check it).  He will also have to recheck his list when repacking at his destination.[/quote]

OP here. He is bothered by losing things, forgetting appointments and things like that. But it doesn't change. He often doesn't tell me he's lost items because he knows it's crazy too. The tux example was such a good recent example though. Who doesn't check for their tux shoes when you pack your tux? Or grab the studs when you grab your bow tie? The only thing that's ever worked is me texting DH "Remember to bring your W2 home" "Dentist appointment at noon" "Text your dad, it's his birthday". I have a joint calendar and joint note app (Wunderlist) so I can see his schedule. But then it's like I have a 3rd child. He often asks me for lists of what to do around the house so that he can prioritize his weekend or week nights.

Anything with huge, lasting consequences gets done by me. Like our taxes, paying our bills, vacations, appointments.

[b]If he were to get on ADHD meds, do they truly fix these issues? [/b]My sister was on Ritalin and I don't remember her being super productive when she was on them. [/quote]

Yes.

He needs treatment.  He needs to be evaluated.[/quote]

FOr the sake of his marriage, he needs this ^^

You don't want to develop health issues because of the stress of his ADHD.[/quote]
