[quote=Anonymous]New poster here who also has a DH and two children with ADD.  It did wear me down. A lot.  Years of being the only one who wasn't constantly losing things; being surrounded by three males who forgot or simply just didn't hear what was just said to them at least 3x.  Being the only one who could plan for vacations, summer camps, multiple moves.  My DH always checked out when I needed him to be on top of something.  Very disengaged.

Several years ago both children were diagnosed and a year later my husband finally admitted.  Medication has made a world of difference with school performance, being able to take in verbal directions, and motivation.  My husband now gets it.  He can see the difference and understands what I spent many years complaining about.  Things have turned around completely, but I still sometimes get angry when I remember how drained I was.  How the three of them would look at me like I was the crazy one because I wanted them to recognize and address the chaos.
