At one of my events, someone asked me if my story of being ADHD was true. They said I was having fun & laughing too much for someone w/a “disorder.” 😀 Believe me, it took me a long time, but I did finally find the humor in living with ADHD & it has been a great blessing to be able to joke & laugh about it.

I like how Bill Cosby puts it: “Through humor you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.”

To get you smiling this morning here is a bit from one of my favorite comics, Jim Gaffigan:

I’m told that being married to an ADHDer can be a bit of a challenge. 😀 My wife says that one of her biggest frustrations is that I can never finish a “home projects” in one go. I’m embarrassed to admit that there have been “honey-dos” around the home that should have taken me 5 hrs to complete, but instead took 2 yrs!

What are some struggles in your relationships with ADHDers? And how do you deal with the situations? My wife has fine-tuned the art of catching the right moment to get me back on track with lack-luster, but necessary tasks. She says, she tries to catch me while I’m rested, up-beat and on the cusp of some fun, adventure-filled activity. Of course, sometimes she just threatens to beat me up…Joking! 🙂
