ADHD or Austism Or Maybe Both
Does anyone else believe they may be autistic but because you’re high functioning you haven’t been diagnosed ?

I have ASD and ADHD. Being diagnosed with ASD isn’t really “helpful” because there is no treatment like stimulants etc. It is just an “ah hah” moment. Whereas an ADHD diagnosis comes with a lot of treatment options …
Yup! I haven’t had it officially diagnosed, but I relate just too much with Autie-ADHDers
Yes i am! I just made a post today about this and my symptoms I think may apply... I can't find it afford the evaluation I do find for autism for adults so I've just been trying to research on my own but I can't get support without a diagnosis 💔
A friend and myself currently are both looking into this as we feel the same way. Also as women we both were expected to mask and ‘get things done’, so we both have become high functioning but underneath are feeling a combo of both ADHD and autism. Just yet to be diagnosed.
