I'll try be brief but included everything relevant. Also don't want to be outing so won't go into massive detail with this.

So DH has been speaking to a therapist over a year now and it has come up through discussion that he is possibly dyspraxic and/or has ADHD.
He does urgently need to be diagnosed one way or another as it is really affecting our marriage. He can get very agitated and nasty sometimes and I wondered if this is actually a symptom? (I've been told it is, but I don't want to have to continously excuse his behaviour). He has always been this way to an extent and ticks all the boxes for dyspraxia and a fair few for ADHD.
How long can diagnosis take?

My main concern is that my eldest DS (3) is now showing signs. Are these conditions hereditary?

I was hoping that someone could help if they themselves have dyspraxia or ADHD or have DC with it?
I've done a ton of research to try and understand but I guess I'm reaching out in the hopes to get real insight.

Thank you.
