  • Hey, OP here. Thank you all for your advice. Many of you give great advice that I will take into consideration. I decided to make this single comment to address everyone rather than respond individually to comments. Despite what my original post might insinuate, my wife isn’t a terrible person. She’s a very wonderful and sweet person. We have a great relationship the vast majority of the time. It’s just that the topic of my ADHD meds is a sticking point. Much of this is informed by her religious background and worldview in addition to her experiences of childhood lupus and the baggage that it came with.

    With that said, I’m going to take action over my own health, as many of you have said. I’m going to take my meds again. I want to change my life for the better and she’s going to have to respect it. Once she realizes that it’s going to help me get my life back together (and, by extension, improve our lives together), she might come to terms with my neurodivergent condition.

    Thank you all, once again, for the advice and any new advice that might come after I post this comment!
