My husband refuses to believe he has adhd/autism!!! Life is he'll sometimes

NAS82939

My husband refuses to believe he has adhd/autism or both and living with him is taking a toll on my mental health and i really need help in how to deal with an adult who is in denial and does not listen to my advice?

He doesn't talk to me if he doesn't get his way. He doesn't communicate with me about anything unless he wants to talk. Im loosing my patience with him and need to be shown how to deal with this behaviour. Some of his family members have it and have been diagnosed so they also help with how I should deal with his behaviour but is this my life now???? This is tiring and mentally hard to deal with.

I need help!!!

    Yeah it’s really difficult being shut out for no reason it took me a long time and a good friend to figure it out in the end we figured out that he just doesn’t care but doesn’t want to move on either or put the effort in to rebuild but that doesn’t mean you deserve to be treated like that. It was quite bad for me as I had a group of people bullying me on the outside too

    Yeah this is where I got up to before I had to call it a day as I couldn’t take it any longer

    Yeh i have come to realise that things may not change so im doing all I can to look after my mental health. The more im out the house doing activities i want to do, the better. Im just so sick of dealing with the mood swings and no communication. If he was able to communication with me, things would be better but the silence everyday and not answering my questions when I do actually have something to say, yeh I just cant be bothered anymore. Its wearing me down and I refuse to allow his negativity to make me ill. Sad to say but I really need to look after myself I think
