Hi i am new to this forum.. I joined this forum because my boyfriend has adhd. I came to get support, understanding, and advice about adhd. We been off on and for 4 years and I love him and want this to work. Any ideas on how i can bring it up that our relationship is suffering because of adhd. I don't completely blame him but i want to bring it up in a loving way not in a parent child way i want him to know i love him and im willing to work with this out. Im just worried how do i approach it any ideas?

Welcome, I'm sorry your relationship is struggling. For more specific relationship advice, you can post in the relationship forum.
As for bringing it up to him, has he been officially diagnosed? If not, it might be better not to even mention ADHD, just mention the specific symptoms that are hurting your relationship. Make sure you keep it brief, but also explain that some of the behaviors are not acceptable and need to change. Best of luck, -Sam |
