My husband of nearly 15 years left me
My husband left just over three weeks ago. My ADD seems to be the heart of the issue here. I was only diagnosed last year and I've been on medication and seeing a counselor since late August of 2009. I thought I had ADD for years, but my husband thought I was looking for an excuse and discouraged me from being evaluated. I'm feeling hurt, angry, and confused. My mood swings wildly between crying, raging and feeling indifferent.
We've been struggling for awhile, but this was a bolt from the blue for me. He brought out a list of issues that have apparently been bothering him for years, but which he hasn't really discussed with me before this. Our relationship had turned into a parent/child relationship because of my ADD, but I've been working on being more independent. I just feel like I didn't get a fair shot, since I've not even been working on this for a year. I kind of feel like he's kicked over my sandcastle. I've tried to get him to go to counseling with me, but he refuses. What advice can you give me about dealing with this issue?
