Today, I told my husband that I think he has ADHD. He was offended and began to argue, then he got distracted by a dog outside. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while I was making dinner, my husband argued that our new dog has intelligence issues, and we should give him away. I angrily defended the poor thing, and had almost won, until the dog walked over and licked the inside of the hot oven door. FML
Today, our daughter brought home a stray dog without permission. When my husband came home we took it to a shelter, who sent us to another shelter half an hour out of our way. Then their ADHD asses both wanted coffee at 6pm. By the time we got home, my dinner, and only my dinner, was ruined. FML
Today, it became apparent that my new boyfriend has the mental process where unless you give him specific instructions, he can’t do anything right. Such as when asking him to let the dog out, it won’t occur to him to let the dog back in until I get home. By then the dog had destroyed the garden out of boredom. FML
Today, I sat my husband down for a talk for him to stop going to his female coworker’s house until 1-2am. He insists they’re doing work projects. He became so offended that I thought otherwise that he thrashed the entire living room, stomped out of the house, and slammed the door, completely dislodging it. FML
Today, my husband of 5 months admitted he is jealous of my dog. I've had the dog for 16 years. He admits to wanting to drop it off at the shelter while I'm at work. FML
Today, my husband was working from home, so I asked him to clean the living room and basement. He started yelling about how he needs to focus and that I can't be "constantly distracting him." Sorry for expecting you to care for the space you live in, dick. FML
Today, my ADHD has gotten so bad that I called my son by my brother’s name, bumped heads with my 2 year-old, and just now went to sit back down on the couch next to husband and accidentally elbowed him in the eye so badly that he went to sleep because he was so angry with me. Praying he doesn’t have a black eye tomorrow.. FML
Today, my drunk dad started yelling at my dog for not having a job. FML
Today, my overthinking and ADHD combo got so ridiculous that I found myself worrying about how my cat was going to be after he returned from the vet. Not if he was going to be okay or not, how he was going to behave. FML
Today, my father started nagging me about my husband's mental health. He doesn't understand why my husband can't just walk it off. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Unless he is hyperactive, that sounds more like ADD. Pretty much the same thing, minus the hyperactivity.

I understand where you are coming from, but he does have a right to be offended. Not that having ADHD is a bad thing. Plus, maybe he just wanted to not be frustrated and found peace watching a dog. They can be so cute!

Of course it's a bad thing. That's what makes it a disorder. My anxiety and pseudo-autism symptoms aren't a freaking picnic. But legitimate concern is not an insult.

I didn't mean it like it isn't a concern, my sister has ADHD so I know, but in way that he shouldn't be judged for having it (if he does).

I hope he calms down and considers it. I have ADHD too and it's never fun to be inattentive hyperactive and impulsive lol. hope things work out op

That would be ADD. ADHD means that you are also very hyper/energetic along with the other symptoms of ADD.

Do NOT put him on psych drugs. It's probably annoying that he has a short attention span but he will snap out of it eventually.

You don't just grow out of ADD. You learn to deal with it. And she can't put him on drugs cause he's an adult.
