Relationships

I am highly intelligent. But I’m pretty sure my fiancé thinks I’m a lazy idiot. I constantly forget to do things, simple things, he’s asked of me. He thinks I’m lazy because of my struggles with keeping up with housework. And thinks I just don’t care about paying bills or opening my mail. I have been diagnosed and am on medication, which helps, but he still doesn’t want to accept or try and understand. How do ya’ll work with your significant other on this issue?

This is exactly what caused the demise of my marriage. Husband doesn't believe in adhd. He thinks I'm just lazy. He refuses to accept any other truth. Maybe your SO will go with you to your doctor. Sometimes if they hear it from a professional, they accept it better. My would not go but I always thought it was a good idea.

My husband is really super supportive. If we have a fight over my add behaviour, i send him a video from instagram. There are ton’s of these video’s, like: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CsZqltShvqY/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng== It reminds us that there are more people having this problem.
