And I CAN'T figure out how to change this dynamic. But its hard when his role model is his father who was brought up in a traditional house hold. She even accidentally busted my lip a few times, hit me in the head, kicked me in my back.. none intentionally trying to hurt me, she thought she was playing but her ADHD caused her to not think things through. For me it was a good thing to hit on my demons and resist some old habits. Pathetic though. Once you've triggered the notion that you are trying to argue with them and make them look uninformed or wrong, they will be on the defensive and you've given them the He is finally realizing how inaccurate he was thinking that way. Lots of things he used to do for me. You should let him know what you think about things. Someone with whom I don't have to fight tooth and claw, day after day, just for the right to be ME. What do you do when she criticizes a lack of "confidence" as her reason for not being attracted to you but you're trying to move on from 7+ years of lack of intimacy?

Basically a very long, angry rant about how I was wrong, he was right, and I was the cause of this fight. I said I am not angry. Hopefully you still follow your post and can respond back to it and whathappened with you in the past year since you posted. And I don't know what to do about the "other one" who is like her little hurt child that jumps out and is fighting against her father or something. The T said she never said anything like that.and in fact, therapists don't like commenting at ALL about spouses who've they've never met because they know that they're only hearing one side of the story. Submitted by jlhrva on Tue, 07/07/2015 - 10:58. This is truly deeply concerning to me C but again. I will no longer go to counseling after many bad experiences withclinicians who refused to believe that my husband hadADHD. Then he chased my car out of the driveway and took all of the cash out of our combined account. AndI'm shocked,hurt, and betrayed that someoneI KNOW to be a wonderful, kind, good person would treat me in this manner. There is a lot there that she can't look at because it's too painful. It was an AhAmoment for me and with my encouragement, he ageed to be tested. I give him kudos for that much at the very least. Though I wish he would slip and tell me who her boss is. I needed to include that to apply what you said about yourself being seemingly more extroverted like me in the same way? Huge fight over the past few days, I am still working on the sessions where it talks about how our perceptions are completely different and trying to understand that we see things and hear things and process things differently. And if we make it through that, he will walk out when she tells him that his "she's lucky I'm here" attitude is not appropriate or constructive. He says he cannot handle a separation emotional forlong and that at one point there will be no return. Thinking what i just said could be the reasons along with a comment Melissa made to this very thing? I have no clue if my wife is having an emotional affair with this person and if she has feelings for him. It's honestly like talking to a brick wall that can answer you, but only give negative answers. The voices tell him horrible things and puts horrible thoughts in his head. Since it's been snowing here which is not rare but more unusual and I was looking up the forecast right from the source since things are changing rather quickly and I was updating her by reading to her what it said off my phone? If I say that to him, he responds with "what, so now I'm not allowed to?". marriage and family therapist Nicole Richardson. Do you think they genuinely don't see their own close-mindedness with this inability to consider another person's perspective? Poor guy but so glad I am done being his personal cheerleader. I want to feel secure in being vulnerable when explaining my frustration as well. Just the ability to do this tells me what not to do with her those moments. When an insecure know-it-all is told they are wrong about something, it plays into their insecurity, and their defences go up.

I don't even know if I have a relationship at this point. But he'll always say oh you're right I'm always wrong. My husband can actually laugh about his ADHD now which definitely helps after experiencing all of the things that have been mentioned in the posts.

He makes fun of things that I enjoy and if I refuse to go do his things , he becomes whiney. And know that you are not alone if you have faith. I am sick of H later claiming that he said something that he never did. Another facet of the problem is that, perhaps because he is such a high-functioning individual, he SINCERELY believes that he is being empathetic, understanding, and compassionate. Things don't happen to us, they happen from us. or she says " this is how two way conversations normally happeneach person exchanges ideas back and forth, not one of your monologs". If another person is angry with you and you don't understand why.it's likely that this is what you did and their response to you is telling you that. I love my wife and when she is in a "normal" state of mind, when things are going well, she is awesome and we are deeply in love, this is the woman thatI dropped everything to marry. I realised something in him was choosing to see me in a negative light. Deflection is another amazing tool. No matter how hard I try to do everything perfect he will find fault. He said so your not going to see her, because your angry at her because you can't take criticism. He says that he is willing to see a psychiatrist, but does not want me to have any part in it. The problem is that the healthy person often doesn't understand that the person that they dated during the early monthsdoes NOT exist. I'm deferring to him at every turn. I need to keep hope that he will one day know the REAL me, and not his paranoid delusion version if me. And he is hard to convince of anything other than what he invented inside his own head. I CANNOT nor WILL NOT live with the adhdRUNNING this marriageMY LIFE matters just as much as YOURS. I left the relationshipwhen our kid was 2. I will be accused of continuing some 'pattern' of bad behavior. We are all creating our reality, yes, including children. "Why yes.how did you know?" That's a pretty dangerous road to go down. And not getting all the information that is being withheld (not being open and honest emotionally or otherwise) due to the lack of trust that person is receiving by having decisions made for you like a child? Your children will be a great source of love for you. I totally can relate to others' words hitting home- that's why I joined. I challenge anyone to do this and not find the same thing is true for yourself. And if I suggest that this is his interpretation, rather than my intent, he will fly off the handle about how there's no other way to take this, I clearly meant this, here is his "evidence" for why I meant thatetc, etc. he was gone all the time and didn't have to deal with her.

ONLY HE can fix that.or not..and I can live with either one. He has since texted me to say thank you for picking up my prescription and trying to parent me about a doctors appointment that I am trying to make, insisting it would be better for me to see a nurse today rather than wait to see a doctor. I posted it on Facebook, so it wasn't like I was hiding anything. I am coming full circle back to the FACT that.if the spouse with the issue cannot/willnotACCEPT they have this and it can GREATLY affect the quality of their MARRIAGEthen I need to prepare to mourn the death of our union and move on. Which non-ADHD folks is never the problem it is my lack of empathy to his feelings which I promise you is not what I am trying to express to him. I'm sure it still hurts, even though you know it's not your fault. She told him that he is well over the 50% point on the Narcissist scale! More in response to the "illogic" in your H's decision making and applying it that way? I am guessing him spending so much time with his parents is really just their way of keeping him on a short leash to stay out of trouble. If you didn't do this when they were really little.it might even be considered abuse by some standards right? I'm revisiting here after things have been going so well for DH & I after Melissas Couples counseling. I can see it coming and she starts to get ansy and very impatient. If you are living a deprived life you are repressing/doing this to yourself. A false premise then requires a false argument to a debate and that's all denial is.arguing or defending a false premise or believe that is not universally true for everyone.

For example, when my partner tells people the story of why we are separated right he says "we had an argument and she walked out on me". No. You can learn a lot by just listening.actually, I've found you learn more by saying mostly nothing and letting the other person talk. Do you. He had not ever moved to a point where I was more to him than someone he took from. Sometimes I feel that the best thing for me to do is to just focus on getting through my day to day life the best I can and leave behind the idea of an emotional connection to someone. In our last session he couldn't contain himself and stormed out. I am not satisfied with the answers because they do not contain a shred of personal responsibility and are stories pulled out of thin air for the occasion.

Yes, some of us choose very difficult life circumstances (and I am one of them). I started to this summer to help me cope with my health issues and the effect on my mental health. When I was trying to select a counselor for us, I looked up the area's resident ADHD "expert" and consulted his office for a referral. But, my reason for responding to you about this is because I believe you are right when you say you think there is more going on with your husband. That seems like a reasonable and logical thing if you are not wanting to repeat the same mistake twice you would think? Ihave NEVERgotten an apology let alone closure in any of the arguments we've had and because I was the"fixer" who always wantedto communicate and come up with a solution,I have been sufferingfor a while. Once my wife and I got married life was great i was working all the time with overtime with a great company who i am still with today but my untreated condition only made things worse. I just recently discovered that he has been telling our friends, as well as his family and friends, all his reasons for ending things, and it is clear from what he has told them that he never accepted or believed that I couldn't do more than I did. He expected me to behave like them. If I could say "You said X" and not have him insist that I made it up. That question and answer thing againlike in the "lead guitar solo? I will not agree to that. This may not seem fair to me but it is what it is. What we hear said to us out of "honest" communication? He lashes out and then all hell breaks loose, as I usually flip at that point to remind him I am trying to help and he has a huge problem. Accusations that coincide with anger about something I never even thought, much less said or did..Most times I feel blind sided.. shocked. He MUST acknowledge that all of my feelings, whether he intended them or not, are valid simply becauseI am a human being and a co-equal partner. It's like I'm having a conversation with two different people that switch from one to another one in the middle of the conversation without me being aware of it until I say the wrong thing (completely unbeknownst to me) and then comes out the "other one." As if not acknowledging it means it never happened. Submitted by Justbreathe on Wed, 03/19/2014 - 17:43. They give what they want to give and onlywhen they want to give it, That works for them, and any attempt to change that only invokes their wrath and we end up feeling battered and broken for "daring" to ask for what we need from them emotionally in the relationship. I'm soo tired of holding on to the fantasy of a normal lifemy faith sustains me, but I know faith without works is nothing. I need something, cause I know he only tells his T the parts he wants to. I'm not her father and I am never going to be her father even if I wanted to. This can only be a good thing even if it by himself at first. If I don't react at all..she will almost always come around. Over the last 2 years or so his behaviour have been getting worse. But let me tell you something. He was so wonderful to me. Probably because he's had to live with this same thing ( for real) for most of his life in other ways ( the ADHD things againbeing rejected and shunned by others over time ). What do you do when she said she wanted more romance and spontaneous angle to love and sex,but she never initiates, or does anything that suggests she's open to physicality? So I met with him and told him calmly and honestly.".there is no future for us with the denial of adhd. I will! I'm not trying to excuse the bad behavior I'm just trying to heal emotionally from all the damage. He insists I did say these things, I do think these things..I am a nasty, unkind, person . with the intention they could then keep it for their night relaxation. Submitted by kellyj on Thu, 05/28/2015 - 10:50. I have told him repeatedly that this impacts me negatively, andthat it even makes me feel like he is punishing me emotionally for not meeting this 'expectation' (that was never reasonable given time constraints, etc to start with!) Yes, the buck stops here. RT @Girl4change: This!! As I said, buried in all the things she told me she had said this in more of a round about way but I was only hearing the points she was making not the overall message. And since I was holding my phone in my handI turned it around and showed her said "isn't this one on your phone? I can't stand his face, how he looks so sad all the time. These women did really feel this way and I was picking this up from them for good reason. Submitted by Avenge kitty on Thu, 04/26/2018 - 03:00. The crappy kissing too. He would change the subject or have to get off the phone and avoid the question.". It's all about defensiveness. That is never my intention but it is the result sometimes.. You are not going crazy and it is incredible that you are trying to figure it out. He's diagnosed with ADHD and has his Adderall which by the way life got a lot colder after he started that drug. Obviously, he reread my text and saw that nowhere did I say that I slept in the car. Some people find it helpful to take a minute to regroup and calm down, so they don't explode at the other person without thinking through what they want to say. He makes everything into a huge argument! 1st time was when I was hospitalized, so he had a lot of free time to do as he pleased. What I especially have a problem with know is how I feel he paints me to be this evil person when I am not. I'm guessing there are other things he does or says thatmight give you a better indication of what his problem might be. So we continue to try to communicate our very real and reasonable needs and wants to partners who either can't or won't hear us. I'm still working on those areas namely the non emotional stuff like house chore and picking up after myself. We have been together a little over a year. I think I can deal with most of the other problems. Pathetic. He denies that I asked that, and reiterates that it's my job to come to him. It was involved in crazymaking all this time and completely missed it. Blame is a big one but that can backfire onto yourself. Maybe yesmaybe no? He would come back and leave again. He admitted he had depression but not ADHD (I think he only admitted it because I disclosed mine first), and when I asked if he was getting treatment (therapy or meds) he said no way, he didn't like the idea of talking to anyone, and said he would never take meds because he didn't need to be suicidal on top of being depressed. What can I do???" He has gone back to trying to be the child in this relationship, but as I am refusing to be the parent it is a little at odds now, so maybe that is what is making him so mad? that's Jon!" If you look at the antonyms and synonyms to the word Dictate..here's what the dictionary has to say about that? Of course things can be inferred without actually saying it, as in your example above about being made to "feel like an idiot." My husband bought himself a pocket-sized book about letting go of anger- even bragged about it like he deserved kudos just for buying it. I also don't accuse her for making me angry and if I do lose my cool at times (not temper or raging) and just get upset in a normal everyday way without yelling or screaming.I also take a moment ( like a few minutesusually 5 or less) and come back to her and say."Okay.I'm back. Those 2% become the 98% instead seeing it from the other side and when someone does this with me.it makes me furious!!! Immediately and without equivocation, blame shifting, scapegoating, projection, or role reversal. Mine hasall those things when they aren't clouded by his depression and negativity. My DH (we'll we are engaged) have been together for almost 5 years; struggling with ADHD now for two months. ", And my wife said "yesbut mine is different than yours and it didn't say what your's says". Are Sagittarius & Sagittarius A Good Match? Really helps. This really is what it looks like. Hopefully you can find a way to define and tackle this issue together as a team, rather than butting heads over it. It wasn't about correcting anybody - it was about me showing myself to him so he would know how to reach me. I'm actually doing all right. See.when I answered "no" to his question about going to a motel, his ADHD brain then "concluded" that I had slept in the car, and his ADHD brain also "concluded" that I had "told him" that I had slept in the car. Most every story I've read and wrote on this forum has proven to me what happens to people who seek to get life out of another person.What makes us humans get emotional when another human is following their own minds, just like we all do? What do we do or don't do. What is the best medicine forsomeone who is "not doing right" to be abused verbally and abandoned sexually? Well this tightwad banked her paycheck for 2 years prior to his retirement and paid off EVERYTHING(many were of his doing only) so he could retire with NO DEBT. I always end up being the bad guyafter trying to help him. I often feel like I'm being "gaslighted" by my DH, who remembers all of our conversations incorrectly and accuses me of doing/saying things I did not (and denying things he said!) I am always depressed, easily upset and i get angry and yell at her and mostly the kids. It sure is different when you are living with someone in their house. I've googledthis before because I end up crying and alone in bed thinking I'm crazy. I am frequently accused of never being satisfied with any answer - that nothing is ever good enough. I know in my past that I had moments or times when I might have had feelings where I thought that the women I've had relationship with might want to leave me but this was after a long time together not feeling that way and it was specifically tied to things that had been said or behavior from them that would indicate that I would have a reason to feel this way. So to recap: 1. Were we both wrong in this case? "I feel X when she does Y." She has a very difficult time being alone for very longin fact.when she alone for more than a few hours without being in contact with someone (anyone)..she starts to show signs of it like you are saying. It is so unjust. I find it interesting too that, as I look back.my spouse has not initiated one single "step" regarding my concern for him..and then, as time went onour marriage. You have that working in your favor. HOW ON EARTH is it a red flag for HIM that i was upset he didnt pay for dinner?!!! And to the point of coming here myself.I had to make sure and of what I was seeing both in myself and my wife to be sure. If anything, my wife is much more confused than I am at this point so to have some one that she believes is correct is all she needed to hear to put her faith in and defer to. So as I saw what you wrote and know I feel the same way from my side of things..this tells me that this is a dynamic problem. He blocked my effort to secure my own apt. Unfortunately for us, hard as I try, he has felt the need to control our situation like a parent reminding me that I never turn off a light or close a door etc etc because of my ADHD. You can choose what you want to do about it with a clear head. I told him that I would not even remotely consider it because he never finished therapy to get a handle on why he has these problems and how to keep from relapse. Well clean for awhile. It's not important. I beg her.pleaselet me know what you want.I'm not a mind reader and I can't know that until you tell me??? Wow. Now i feel as if I am at the beginning again and not sure if I want to stay now. While your partner taking a second to regroup after an argument is not a huge deal, take note if they say they need to go away for a bit after, to get some space. She has said to me many times that not everything is anger but without trying to be smart ass here but in response to herif I see someone who is over reacting to something..and their eye brows are furrowed, they are yelling or talking at you with elevated volume in a chastising or imperious tone..appear kind of out of control and are complaining about something while at the same timelook very unhappy and and making accusations and threats to methis looks like anger to me!!! I hate ADD. IT's NOT. Then, after I learned that expressing was more healthy than repressing, there was a rebound period of expressing TOO much and needing TOO much, which may be what your wife is going through, protracted or otherwise. I'm a nice person. Then, I'll get those items and go to the cash register. Submitted by kellyj on Mon, 12/14/2015 - 16:55. Thank god I still had the note!! He usually misinterprets the things I say. It is up to us, the non-ADHD spouse to protect our ADHD spouse and maintain a healthy marriage. He is 38 now and his misdemeanors occurred in his late teens/20s. At this point, I don't even think he can be called my boyfriend anymore he's completely gone. That is why they don't react to tears (except possibly angrily) or pleas for change- they think we get from them what we deserve. His response? Why do you feel that he doesn't understand what you are saying? It was devastating to hear that he thought so little of me, virtually from the beginning! For me.this was the door I was looking for. Submitted by SpaceyStacey197 on Sat, 08/27/2016 - 18:32. Still no response. I mourn the life I have wasted hoping I could help him and end up with some semblance of a normal life with a spouse that could give and not just take. Denial.yes, very mch so. He then launched into a tirade about me and how he's sick of me and all the trouble I cause (it's causing trouble to ask a question), and how I'm ruining his career. I can tell you one thing for suremy wife really has no idea what she really feels like except never being able to and say the words "I am wrong" and avoids this at all costs. I'm going thru same. When I've tried to clarify that I was not insinuating that I would avoid/abandon him if I was sick, he told me that I was. We have found that humor has helped after many years of fighting, arguing, and contemplating divorce. If they aren't going there to be supportive.they have no business being there at all. Yes, one of the main ones is that I don't think he is telling his therapist everything, he spins for sure. Part of her knows it's wrongand part of her knows she right. I notice that I never get any recognition for my contributions to any positive feelings he has- even when it is obvious that I have gone out of my way to accommodate his needs/moods. The best way to get them there is to make it safe for them to do so and not be adversarial. Now as we are older, I am observing that - although he is an articulate and verbally adept in so many areas - in casual conversations he is very imprecise. That's the part that you two need to go to counseling for together..not for HIS part. This is something that I have had experience with and it scares me for you. I now see it doesn't work that way. She immediately did what she always does and got defensive. Oh Godthe damage I've done. The answer is not well defined by what we always want and many times quite different. The rest of his family lives to their 90's. But how does one get that across without sounding like "You're the crazy one, you're the one imagining things" ?? I lived it for 23 years, and finally couldn't take it. I guess I felt as though I wanted to protect that about my husband. He wanted to stay angry. I just hope he can step up for me and acknowledge that this is unproductive once he is faced with an outside party describing it. Drawn back in himself and always with earphones, obsessed andmood instability. Why not? He always comes around and feels sorry for how he acts. Our psychologist/therapist recommends I move forward with separation/mediationafter so many attempts to try ot fix this marriage. My T whole heartedly disagreed and told me so later once she decided that she wanted a divorce. You can start doing this anytime and you don't need to go therapy or buy a book to do this. He blamed the course of our entire relationship on me and what he knew by then to not be true. We did this as he suggested and this led to my discovering about my ADHD. He's put me in financial ruin, he's neglected our property and destroyed me emotionally. That I don't deserve to be hurt this way. A disenfranchised neglected childbut none the less..that's who you become and how your words get heard and interpreted or changed in the intention as to say..YOU ARE WRONG which meant severe consequences if you were by a parent like this. Our children might tell him that, but he'd vehemently deny it. She will come home from work and I and I can see it on her face. This is the case and why I keep saying the same thing because it appears you just don't understand. But looking at it as a symptom. But in the end, expressing your opinion is not a crime. All she will say is that it's a part of her "WHACK" which tells me nothing. I love the cereal analogy! Sometimes I think he's sneaking a few looks back at a woman he cheated on me with. My wife (undiagnosed ADD) is treating me this very same way, insisting I'm intentionally making a face at her while she's having a breakdown even though my face stays neutral, that I'm thinking she's crazy even though I'm thinking about how to help her, and she started beating me for it. The reason why your H doesn't want you to see/talk to his psychiatrist is because he wants to control the info.which means that he wants to: 1) Directly lie about what's happening, lie about what you're doing, and lie about what he's doing. I am trying to cope, but it seems to be getting worse. I was doing good until yesterday when our daughter emptied out my wifes purse and i found letters to her by this guy from work stating that she was the nicest most caring person that he had ever met and that he wanted to be with her and these notes were from November to February. He doesn't listen to my opinion anymore, or if I try to give an opinion it's like "that's not what I want" then he tells me that his perception is that if he doesn't use my opinion I am pissy towards him, like it's my wAy or the highway! This became really annoying and I would stop him and say "you already said this to me before." etc etc. We have 4 children and one on the way, divorce is not an option. During our relationship, I told him things he did well, things I loved about him, even though that was very difficult for me. I get all of this but.it still leaves you having to deal with a child who acts outliving inside an adult who is there most of the time.but not all of the time. I've found the best way to keep a lid on top of this is to stay as level and even keeled as I can.
