[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 82141, member: 3647"] My X had ADHD. Horrible. He was prescribed Concerta as an adult (I urged him to see a doctor). Took it for about a year; remarkable difference. Then decided that he was "cured", so he stopped taking it. That was about the time that he lost his job. Then he decided he would ride out unemployment instead of looking for work. Even when his unemployment ran out, he was in no hurry to find a job. He was too busy playing with his remote control cars with the other unemployed jerks in the neighborhood. There was, like, a club of losers. I had to leave him. We could not make rent. His track record has not improved, and in hindsight, was pretty horrible before he was on the Concerta as well. He took it to shut me up. It was the most productive year I saw him have in the 9 years we were together, and I would bet in his entire life. He was never able to keep a job very long, and was always looking for a way to get rich quick. Always looking to "sue" someone for doing something to him. It was a joke. After we split, he had about 4 good months driving his father's semi. He made over $40,000 in that time (not all of that was his; a lot of that went to his dad) but lost his job after getting too many tickets. To my knowledge, has not worked since. And he has had a kid! In my particular case, leaving him was the best option. [/QUOTE]
