they share alot of similar traits and people with ADHD usually have autism aswel

If am wrong, why do u care
If am right,why do u care

You don’t care when misinformation about autism is spread? lol

It's not like am a teacher and I've seen it's very unique just like every human is born different and it's also due to it circumstances/environment and how early/late u were diagnosed (can worsen symptom's)

I know i gots both, so I'll have to live with it, which i do happily

Only thing I find very sad, is the lack of representation of non Caucasian diagnosed folks. It's still very white, so again the experience is very different

Multiple people have said I might have so it might be true

I play dumb a lot though so I don’t know how much that’s a factor

I want to get checked. One of the things I could have following a false add diagnosis

Autism is a disease. I have no friends and I have a kid now too. Family is hit or miss due to them not understanding the condition among other things. Feels like everything's stacked against me with my inability to talk without feeling like I'm out of breath, only to realize I forgot what I wanted to say.
Every dumb special interest i have only serves to take up space in my head that could be better served for social intelligence, and I never apply any of the s*** that ends up sticking in my brain. The sensory s*** I don't get much unless I'm with people.

What makes you think you’re possibly on the spectrum?

I know this guy really well and he has severe autism and he's such a pain in the ass to deal with it at any moment

They are comorbid but they are different conditions which exist on their own spectrums

my girl's bestfriend is supposedly autistic. she pretty normal tbh, just some social s*** that can make one a little anxious sometimes.

probably, i have OCD and after hearing that a lot of OCD gets misdiagnosed as aspergers i was curious

im down bad socially, horrible eye contact, feel disconnected, really smart but I feel like my brain is wired differently to everybody else's/like I wasnt given the same internal manual that everybody else got, if that makes sense. also going really deep into certain interests

its either bipolar disorder, aspbergers, or schizo I think idk

What’s he like?

Controlling, very OCD, smartass know-it-all who can't admit when he's wrong even when you show him facts, tends to argue a lot, lacks some social skills and overall isn't very intuitive when it comes to sensing other peoples' emotions. All that on top of a very addictive personality

praying for yall 🙏🏻😭

Then i might've misread 🙏🏽 or misinterpreted info
Still won't change a thing for myself 😂

Could just be your natural brain. Everyone functions differently and it doesn't need a label applied to it. Are you still a functioning human being? If so, you're probably just an eccentric person.

Unless these symptoms negatively effect you, there's reason to believe that it's not even a mental illness.

Nope.

Diagnosed with OCD and ADHD more than a decade ago. Only one that really affects how I behave and messes with me is the OCD. ADHD can be a b**** to deal with unmedicated (I take concerta) but it is doable.

I also get seasonally depressed but it's situational too. Wouldn't consider myself actually being diagnosed with it.

I kind of feel like a sensitive sociopath with no manipulation skills. I find it hard to care about anyone or anything.

If you try to engage me in conversation and you’re part of the 99% of people I don’t immediately f*** with, I won’t give you much to work with. I find it physically painful to make small talk and try to get to know a new person. It feels like I’ve already heard every possible dull conversation about work, traveling, the weather, life in New York, etc.

In contrast, it seems like neurotypical said get a dopamine rush from filling in silence

I was very outgoing and attention seeking as a child though so idk if I fit the profile that well. I went to a psychologist all throughout elementary school for being annoying and they apparently never thought to diagnose me with anything

I was an annoying person my first few years of highschool and developed a lot of shame from thinking back on what I was like when I expressed myself freely

Doing carti adlibs to myself had me thinking I was on the spectrum

I think usually for autistic children it’s the opposite. You were sociable as where autistic children are lonely and keep to themselves. You were probably just a quirky kid, lots of people were (myself included)

Crazy, I feel the exact same way. I think this applies to a lot of people though.
