ADHD ABUSE

Hello,

I'm here because my partner has ADHD and addiction problems and I'm being severely abused verbally, my house has been violently smashed to pieces so many times, I have been physically harmed and when I try to leave he gets more violent and confiscates my keys, breaks my stuff etc Then the next day after an episode I'm expected to just be OK when he apologizes, if I'm not I'm threatened with more violence and verbally abused for hours, he just follows me and doesn't stop.

I'm beginning to wonder if he isn't just a narcissist or something. This is extreme and I'm always blamed for his behavior towards me needing to walk on eggshells all the time because I never know what will set him off.

He is on 3 different types of meds for his ADHD and even though we have gone to another psychiatrist to change his meds, ge refuses to listen to the Dr to change his diet go to rehab for his addictions, which the Dr says is making his condition worse. He us supposed to work with the Dr on all his anger triggers etc and he just keeps canceling and rescheduling his appointments.

Then this man can also be the nicest mist loving human you' ve ever met in your life

Anyone else have a husband or boyfriend like this and can offer some advice please on how to cope and what to do. I have started having health issues from all the stress.People with ADHD are also welcome to respond and help me understand or give some help please
