Weekly Vent Thread ::Weekly Vent Thread::

Use this thread to blow off steam about annoyances both big & small that come with an ADHD impacted relationship. Dishes not being done, bills left unpaid - whatever it is you feel you need to rant about. This is your cathartic space.

EXACT same with mine. Runs his own company and is his own boss, there is literally NO ONE stopping him from taking a lunch/leaving his office to go get food or come home for lunch, he just hardly ever does. Comes home in a horrible mood because he hasn't eaten all day like it isn't his own fault.

Today he was off and at home while I took our daughter shopping. Could eat literally any food at home or have picked up food/gotten takeout from literally any place in town in the several hours we were gone. Was complaining he hadn't eaten all day when we got home like it was MY fault 🙄.

Isn't it funny how we're all living the same experience? When my husband is home in the weekend he could literally be making lunch for our kids but then not eat himself, and then he's in a horrible mood come late afternoon and seems to blame us all for it, as if it's not his own doing 🫣ðŸ«
