A place for those that got both Autism and ADHD, those confirmed as one and are suspecting they got the other as well, and also everyone who is neither and just genuinely curious.

Since the combo comes with its own set of challenges, this shall be a place to ask for advice, vent, infodump about special interests and/or just vibe and meme.

Please be respectful. General niceness guidelines apply - formal rules will be added later if necessary.

In regards to medication and medical advice: Please take under consideration that this is only an online support community. Offered advice is always an expression of individual opinions or experiences and shall never be taken as substitute for a professional in-person assessment!

This is a SFW community. Sensitive topics are allowed, but must be properly labeled.

psychiatrist looked at the neuropsychologic evaluation results of autism+adhd and was not convinced. not that there isn't anything going on, but he thinks my case isn't as conclusive as the results claim it to be and i'm still open to be diagnosed with maybe other kind of personality disorder (perhaps ocd). he's not discarding autism either, he's just adding other possibilities

(he's pretty sure about the adhd, though)

not sure what to think of it, and also not sure if i should stay here

Yeah, don't worry; my comment wasn't meant to own you with facts and logic(TM). Just to educate, since I know picking up a bunch of jargon in the setting of an appointment is extremely difficult. Hope things go well for you!
