[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ADHD is real. XDH had undiagnosed ADHD for a many years, but it became apparent after our first kid and when he took on a more challenging job. I watched his inability to cope and even developed my own name for it: I thought he couldn’t “parallel process.” Come to find, there were already terms like “inability to multitask” and “ADHD” to describe the condition.

At first I called it Passive Aggressive and thought he was F'ing up on purpose all the time and then lying about it.

Then I realized there was a clear pattern of him never listening well - to anyone, forgetting what to pack on trips, losing keys or phone on a weekly basis, never recalling important conversations. 
I called it Ineffective or Dysfunctional.

Then things got bad when the kids came + us both working, where he continued to be ineffective and dysfunctional but try to cover it up or lie about it. I got run down trying to do everything and still being sabotaged by Mr. Forgetful. Now the trust is gone and I fully realize I am married to someone I cannot count on for much. He probably only does 50% of what he says he'll do, or remember 50% of what he is actually supposed to do. We all suffer - kids go to activities without the right stuff, despite notes and reminders everywhere; late most times; deadlines missed constantly; conversations forgotten; missed every holiday or bday present. It's like he just doesn't want to be involved, and is incapable of being involved. [/quote]
