Hi, Torgerme~

Yes, my relationship is suffering too because of my forgetfulness and other symptoms. There is a list of ADHD coaches on the CHADD website. Just go to the directory online:

Also some good books exist- this was helpful:

The ADHD Effect on Marriage: Understand and Rebuild Your Relationship in Six Steps Paperback – September 1, 2010

by Melissa Orlov (Author), Edward M. Hallowell

Good luck on your journey.

Thanks, my husband bought that book about a month ago, I haven’t read that much but it seems like it asks a lot of the spouse. I appreciate your reply.

You are very welcome. That is true, but ADHD in general causes a lot of extra effort- at least in my case. Here's one more that I liked because it's more humorous: The ADHD Marriage Workbook: A User-Friendly Guide to Improving Your Relationship Paperback – March 1, 2012

Another thing that I found useful is daily meditation. I found a group/person that I like listening to on YouTube - look under "guided meditation" and you will see many choices.

Hope this helps you.
