I've been married for nearly 30 years and my husband decided recently he wants a divorce. He's always looked at my ADHD as an excuse (which I've never used it to excuse myself from anything, but rather to explain why certain behaviors occur - or don't occur as it may be) and never seemed interested in doing any of the things I expressed would help me.
Now I am trying to navigate this divorce and just feel like I need someone to be my mental advocate when I am not picking up on the things in the moment that are being discussed. My brain catches up later and realizes that maybe what I agreed to wasn't in my best interest. I hate how I keep second guessing myself. I'm fortunate enough to have seven years of weekly therapy under my belt, so I know to ask for what I deserve. But I think I'm so afraid of getting it wrong.
I know when I get on the other side of this I am going to make darn sure that I start something like a resource for people with ADHD who are going through divorce, or a hub to lead them to the resources, because maybe I'm just not doing the right search phrases
Any advice is welcomed and appreciated.
P.S. Have I mentioned I haven't been in the work world since 2009?
