That is wild! I can’t believe they made us have to pay for information now.

I usually forego weekends if I don’t have any plans. At least one day, even if I do. I figured it’s better than nothing. Last time I tried to stop taking my meds I nearly quit my job. Like I was talking to my boss and it was literally on the tip of my tongue lol.
That’s not true! That was old school dsm speak. I was also told this lie, but it is very possible to have both. And if you have autism, you’re more likely to have adhd (but not the other way around).
My phone says Columbia Tiger Lily.
I think there’s like a 50-70% chance that if you have autism , you also have adhd. So it’s very likely you have both, especially if you’re relating to the adhd symptoms.
I’ve noticed mine fight each other though. Like when I started treating my adhd, my autism symptoms were way more evident. But before that, my adhd symptoms were definitely more prevalent. So that made it harder for me to get both diagnoses at the same time too, and I ended up having to seek separate diagnoses from different doctors. And the adhd diagnosis was way easier to get than the autism one for me, so it may be worth seeking that one out!
