ADHD and Relationships
How has ADHD impacted your relationship with your significant other? What things have you and/or your partner done to adjust since being diagnosed? What challenges did you face and how did you overcome them? My fiancée and I are at breaking point and it just feels there’s a lack of commitment and understanding from both sides. My symptoms have worsened since being formally diagnosed, and I feel that even though we now have an answer as to why I do (or don’t do) certain things, I still get questioned and reprimanded, which then causes me to become overwhelmed, completely shut down, and put a wall up (depersonalisation and realisation kick in)
