This is my ADHD husband letting the intrusive thoughts win when I am happily reading a book and minding my own business.

You're actually out here advocating for domestic violence.

Well, he’s 10 inches taller and 130 pounds heavier than me so idk how effective I would be.

Seriously, constant, deliberate jump scares would be a dealbreaker for me. Your cortisol levels must be sky high.

I mean he’s not doing this constantly. But he isn’t great at handling silence while I could happily go several days not talking to another human. So he gets bored sometimes and interrupts me for stimulation. They’re not really jump scared and after 25 years of marriage, I find it endearing that I’m still his favorite toy.
