@niamhgarvey@miffyhelen@actuallyautistic@actuallyadhd Having only recently found out I'm ADHD as well I think one of the biggest factors is that autism & the monotropism that comes along with it mitigates the inattention & distractibility associated with ADHD.
Also one of the benefits of ADHD is that it nudges my autistic self out of its routines & comfort zones for novelty seeking & social interaction. This means I've had quite an exciting life.
I'm beginning to suspect that "High functioning" & "Asperger's" may just be co-occuring #ADHD & #Autism in many, many cases.
