Here's some inspiration to keep trying:

Marriage Experts Say to Hang In There

Divorce is a common side effect of ADHD. But getting one doesn't mean you'll live happily ever after.

"...Even more dramatically, the researchers also found that two-thirds of unhappily married spouses who stayed married reported that their marriages were happy five years later. In addition, the most unhappy marriages reported the most dramatic turnarounds: among those who rated their marriages as very unhappy, almost eight out of 10 who avoided divorce were happily married five years later..."

(the article mentions nothing more of adhd - it just happens to be published on an adhd site)

I believe it. But unfortunately, our spouses who have left wouldn't, especially when they're 'in the fog'. I'm committed. Whatever happens, I want to know that I never gave up, and stayed committed to my wife, my marriage, and preserving our family.

I wish my W could find a way to agree with the article. Last time she gathered that I had hope, she said that it was another example of how I don't take what she says seriously since she already told me there was no hope.
