Hello,

I have just found this site and I am hoping that I can find help in dealing with my husband's new diagnosis of ADD. We have been married for almost 6 years and things were going well, or so I thought. Since his mother passed away two and a half years ago, things have gotten progressively harder. There were financial issues and emotional issues that came to a head last October and now it has all culminated in this diagnosis.

I know I will have to learn to deal with our new normal and I will certainly have questions regarding what to expect once he starts on meds. I hope that this community will help me deal with this new disorder (although, he must have had this for a very long time).

I do understand what it is like to live with a disorder for a long time before ever getting a diagnosis as I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in '97 after spending years, 10+, trying to understand what was going on with me. It certainly helps to know what it is we have but now we are at the stage of "Now what???"

Thanks
Charlotte
