The above advice is certainly good and I agree with it, but it seems to sidestep your original question of “How do I stay sane.”
Realize that although the rage may be directed at you, it is not about you. Although he may blame you, it is not your fault. Try to remain calm, listen, it may be that anything you say to defuse the situation may only make it worse. Do not respond in kind, if things get too bad, WALK AWAY.
Consider that he may be borderline personality disorder. Read about BPD. If he is, there is a support group for BPD @ <http://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php> There is also a book “Stop walking on eggshells” that may be of help.
I and the members posted above view your situation quite seriously in that the tone of your post seems to indicate a situation beyond the realm of ADHD and could be potentially dangerous not only physically, but also to you mental and emotional health.
I hope somewhere in all of these responses you find something useful. Let us know what happens, please feel free to elaborate on your situation and ask for more advice. Let us know what happens. Otherwise, we’ll be in suspense for the rest of our ADD lives and we have enough distractions already.
