  • Meds causing alcohol cravings?

    Jump

  • Weed, interestingly enough, never dulled my senses but rather heightened my awareness. Often I would feel super present and attuned. But at some point it started to make me feel anxious and so eventually I stopped using it (many many years ago).

    Alcohol sometimes also makes me feel "more emotionally awake" and I think it's this feeling that I crave.

  • My SO actually did tell me when she noticed improvements. But there weren't enough improvements...

    The tip with the "mistake journal" is great btw, I had never thought of that. Thank you so much, I will definitely start doing this :)

  • Yeah, you're absolutely right. Thank you for this.

    I want to keep working on my issues regardless of whether or not I'm in a relationship.

    Even though a part of me feels like giving up on it when I wasn't able to save my marriage...

  • Thank you so much, this is great advice.

    But I think it may already be too late for us. We've been on the brink of breaking up before and my wife hasn't been happy in our marriage in a long time. Last week she told me this once again and that she's currently under too much pressure (other things going on in her life) to make any decisions but basically thinking about ending things. And then two days later we had an ugly fight and I think.... I think it's too late.

  • It makes me angry when other people don't understand how much my partner struggles with my ADHD

    Jump

  • Thank you for your replying <3

    After reading the comments I went back and read my post and realized I didn't get my point across. The thing that bothers me isn't that I don't get enough sympathy for my own struggle. What bothers me is that when I tell people "my ADHD has been eroding our marriage" everyone seems to be low-key (or not so low-key) assuming that my partner must be overreacting because it can't be THAT bad. They think I'm just a bit more chaotic than most people and my partner must be overly sensitive.

  • Yeah, I've been suffering from depression for around 1,5 years and am currently on antidepressants in addition to my adhd meds. Looking back on my life I can see how ADHD has always been there but I also think that my interpersonal relationships suffered as badly as they could have. I think I was often lucky. For example, I lost my first "proper job" because I kept forgetting important things. But regardless of that my boss liked me on a personal level, suggested that this job just wasn't for me and when I got a job at the same place but a different department we still got along great.

    But my relationship with my wife had only been my second proper relationship and my first true long-term relationship and I feel like my ADHD was a ticking timebomb and when it went off it shattered everything.

  • Thank you so, so much. All the kind words I have received in these comments really mean so much to me.

    I think by now my partner does grasp what having ADHD means. In the past she didn't really know what it meant and thought that ok people were maybe a bit more chaotic or forgetful.

    But she has realized that the way my brain works is just fundamentally different and sometimes incomprehensible to her. And she knows me having ADHD means she has to put up with some things in order to be together with me but it's reached a point where there isn't really any, or hardly any, happiness left. She feels completely drained and constantly on the edge of depression. We have completely fallen into the "child-parent-dynamic" and she says being married to me is like being married to a teenager. Or having a child without having a child. Which in turn, I guess it goes without saying, has also pretty much killed any romance or attraction between us.

  • My partner 100% doesn't have ADHD, I have never met a more focused, attentive, pro-active person than her. She always immediately knows what to do and gets it done. But she's repeatedly stated that she thinks she might be on the autistic spectrum and from what I know about it and what I know about her I agree it might be the case and, if true, that would probably be another factor making things difficult 🤔
