I need an article or website to use as a reference for my boyfriend to understand the behaviors and the way adults with ADD/ADHD think. I can't make him understand and it's very frustrating to me when he yells at me constantly about things I don't realize that I am doing.

You have a right to be upset & hurt when someone attacks you about a condition you can't control & that I know I wish would go away & stop running my life. I am VERY, very hard on myself about my house. I like everything just so & it drives my Husband in sane. He says our home does not look lived in half the time. I don't know what to do to change this so that I can deal with clutter, or a mess & just sit and chill. You have to realize though, they have no clue what we got going on inside us & he needs to take a moment to try and make understanding a priority or you may as well kiss that relationship bye, bye.. It will all turn to resentment eventually if you don't do something now. Good luck!

I agree with multimom. Get him information now or he will resent you.
I was married for 15 years, still am for that matter but am in the middle of a divorce. I have recently been diagnosed with ADHD and it has explained alot of things to me as to why I will do or won't do certain things. Procrastination, disorganization, etc. Anyways, I blame my not knowing about my ADHD in time for alot of the break up. Not all of it but quite a bit. I typed in ADHD on google and found alot of helpful information. I've also found a couple books to be helpful. Make sure you don't focus all on the bad stuff of ADHD tho, point out some of the good points in itsuch as I was told people with ADHD tend to be more creative so if he likes that you are creative or something along those lines, it could be in part of the ADHD so it isn't all negative I have found. I've also found great relief in knowing why I do so many things now! Or don't do I guess I could say since procrastination is actually not doing stuff or putting it off!
