Impulsive Relationships - Toxic
Call me a newbie as I have just been diagnosed with ADD after seeking professional help following some massive personal turmoil. It is very early days for me and I am coming to terms with my emotions and more importantly my medication.
For someone who is relatively intelligent I have always been puzzled by the fact that I have made such poor judgments in my relationships. Why do I compromise my values and beliefs, constantly failing to express myself, then holding onto deep resentment and watching those that I have committed to walk away from me feeling hurt and unloved?
Well, I think I know have some insight into my damaging behavior that has cost me so much over the last 15 years.
The impulsive element of my ADD is one that has contributed to both my marriages starting and ending in exactly the same way! I can't believe it, yes that's right I have had two failed marriages that have been identical.
>Intense start with rapid commitment living together within 1 month of meeting.
>Getting or engaged within 6 months of meeting
>Compromising self and failing to communicate
>Partner feeling unloved and emotionally abused
>Ending after 12 months!
I feel like I need to put a tattoo on my abdomen that says ' Warning may make rash decisions based on poor insight and judgment'
Like I said early days.
