Is it true that ADHD-people are easily bored sexually? Or is that not true?

I would not say sexually bored. I would say, a combination of bad judgement and impulsivity could make one appear bored. I don't think it is any differnt than any other aspect of life, sometimes we tend to jump from subject to subject (no pun intended) not due to bordum, but lack of even realizing it sometimes.
This is not to mean that ADHD people are permiscuious.(sp) Just that sometimes the same old same old, gets old. I think everyone ADHD or not has expeirenced that at some point in their life.

I think that quality lovemaking often requires some sustained concentration, and this is more difficult for an ADHD adult, no matter how strong their feelings for their partner ...

I don't want to sound dumb, BUT when I was in HS, health class distributed a piece of paper. The title was How to Make love.  A few ideas: holding hands, giving flowers, whispering sweet nothings. WHOA...hold up here, nothing sexual??? Everything that has a loving gesture, we were informed was an act of love, just as the "act of love" I will say that hubby and I are happy, hehehe ;D We test the waters here and there, hehehe, but we never get bored because we make it up as it goes along. We want the other, how can I say this, satisfied. HMMM NOPE NOT BORED ;D Kaiti |

I hope your not laughing at me  I mistakenly put a mirror on the wall on the other side of our room. Didn't do it on purpose, but I had to move it to an angle. Saw TOOOOOO much. Hubby thought it was a little on the risque` side. Nope, just trying to arrange furnature Kaiti |

Ha ha ha! There a few things that make me turn away, but seeing myself from "that angle" would definately be one of them!!! |

Maybe that's why some people like the lights turned down  The more I have been thinking about it, the original question that is.... We get bored with the same old same old. Like waiting for the kids to go to bed on a Sat. nite and the late movie is off. We haven't done the out right outragous stuff, then again, in who's eye's is what outragous Still thinking about the question, as the sentualism( if that is as word) plays as big apart in our relationship as the actual "act" Kaiti |

I used to totally get bored. I would be like-okay lets go-okay now finish up with a bang. Good husband. No pun intended but I was like a bored older adult on the 4th of July-I just wanted the grande finale and to go to bed. Now-It's totally different-cause of my wonderful Concerta/Prozac. Now I can travel in my car to the stadium, watch the people filter into the stands, get a coke, get some chocolate, watch the sunset and the deep night come out, and see all the fireworks from beginning to end. Much more satisfying and gratifying-as men usually show their love for their women through the act of making love.

I am currently trying to find a medicatin that can work for me, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me knwo so I can talk to my doctor about it.

I don't know if this will apply at all for some folks. Probably depends on the age of your kids.
I remember when we were always in an all fired hurry because Sesame Street would be over in 10 minutes. Wasn't too good for building intimacy and strengthening the relationship. But that stage of life ends and then nothing on TV is guaranteed to keep them occupied for even 20 minutes. Which is even worse for building intimacy and strengthening the relationship.
We realized for togetherness we were going to have to have a little less togetherness with the sprouts. Started hiring a sitter for a night out or a few hours of adult time at home.
Once you get in the habit of rushing it's hard to break. It helps to schedule some time away from the kids. Doesn't fix everything all at once but it does help.

One thing I have noticed about us, we'll still steal glances across the room, even if we are at home and no one is around. We flirt like all get out, which is quite funny when you have people looking at you like "grow up" You know what. NO I WILL NOT GROW UP. That would take away the fun of flirting with my own husband thank you. My husband calls me twice a day from work, just to see how everything is going. Which at first I thought was obssessive, but now I realize I miss him if he doesn't call. OK corny, but true. How much longer do you think the kids will realize at family nap time, mommy and daddy aren't napping Kaiti |
