 haha. yes. 
after 2-3 yrs of marriage my wife asked me to go see a therapist for my ADHD, because I am so impulsive & well, not like her (marry your opposite)

I saw the therapist but refused the drugs. I’m close to midlife, I don’t know how I go this far, but I’ve had a blast & been relatively successful so I’m not about to screw it up now.  

Both my sons have heavy ADHD. They  can be very frustrating and now I have remorse for how I tortured my parents. 
 I outsource a lot of random day to day shit to my wife, because she’s the better more organized one obviously. She keeps my schedule for important things etc… I couldn’t do it without her. That said she is aware that my ability to Hyperfixate is the reason she doesn’t have to work. So she doesn’t bother me much about the inattention to trivial bullshit. She appreciates what I do and I appreciate her doing the day to day. It’s a good union. 
 wife is good
life is good
