[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only one that sees attacks on such a husband and/or baby’s father as an implicit attack on your child, who has his genetics? Not a good look. Y’all are basically calling your own child stupid, lazy, special needs, a loser, a bum, etc.[/quote]

Sorry to report but stupid and lazy people do indeed exist PP. Whether it’s due to unmanaged adhd or just lack of IQ or work ethic. 
And at some point and age, it’s up to them to fix it themselves or suffer the consequences. [/quote]

ADHD is a mental illness and not at all “stupid and lazy” WTF is wrong with you?! [/quote]

Stupid and lazy is not treating and managing your ADHD.

Get it now? [/quote]

No, I don’t “get it”. Managing ADHD is not like popping a pill and everything is fine. Only ignorant people think like that.

BTW should we treat menopausal women the same way? Are they “unstable and overly emotional” and not “managing” their hormones if they get hot flashes and have needs that are unique to their personal health? There is literally a thread blaming hormones on hating your own perfectly nice husband but nobody called those women “stupid and crazy”, right? I think you are just another misandrist.

No one said it popping a pill except you.

A year of DBT therapy is the gold standard to get and practice better communication, executive functioning, and socialization habits. It may take longer if you aren’t doing your homework or graduating each module. If you need a stimulant to help you focus on developing adult habits and organizational systems that work for you, that is fine too.

You’d do that for your struggling adhd child, right? So do it for yourself, and others who want to be able to rely on you.
