My wife and I have been married for 5 yrs. Her sister and I both agree that she should be tested for ADD. The problem is, her and her parents have stereotyped all mental disorders/ dysfunction as being mentally retarded. I respect my wife and love her so much, but this has been driving a wedge in our relationship. How can I get her evaluated for Adult ADD? She refuses to admit she may have a problem. I have tried to take some of the self-tests from "her" perspective. All of the "self-tests" have given the same result, she is showing signs of ADD and recommended seing a professional. I don't know if it is just me...or if she really does have a problem, but I would like to have her tested to see. How do you help someone see they may have a problem and seek evaluation?
