It’s hard to find community that’s understanding and accepting. Now that I know why just existing in this world has been such a challenge, hope to do something about it.
What were the symptoms you experienced that led to your eventual diagnosis?
My wife and I were diagnosed with ADHD around age 30 (20 years ago). This past year she informally got her autism diagnosis (from therapy, but they’re pretty sure but didn’t bother to pursue too much because while ADHD has meds, autism doesn’t, so less important). It’s helped us both understand some things and we’ve found some things helpful - explains some things like food texture issues, so it’s helped a bit, but also hasn’t been too revolutionary.
Which is to say… yay, glad you got a diagnosis! I hope you find this a friendly place. :)
Autism Deficit Hyperactive Disorder? (Serious question)
AuDHD refers to someone who has been diagnosed both with ADHD and autism. :)
