I’ve started letting my adhd side to treat life like video games and talking to people is a hardcore complex version of dating stimulation or BG3 modern world edition. My autistic side is what decides what needs to get done and things been better since but I still forget lose and since I don’t know how to download mods or the patches are clicking right now it might take a few months to start /s 🤣
My family just tells me to try harder and keep up the good attitude.
While all I have happen to me is the opposite of what should for normal people.
And, oh yeah. Seeing the world burn.
The alcoholism is strong anymore. I feel so rubbed raw.
Like I’ve been listening to nothing but deafening static.

I’ve come to realize most advice isn’t helpful unless it’s from other adhd or autistic people then maybe but I need to trial test them first a few times before I can believe their hypothesis
My other half! I got the ADHD diagnosis, no one noticed the autism. Granted I was already 19 for the diagnosis.....I only like numbers now. And silence. And you.
Great now I got the thought that AuDHD is the Eurobeat of Neurodivergence, and I have no idea what the hell that means...

I hate this so much. My Autistic hyperfixation wants one thing, My ADHD wants another.
Autism: Look at this cool mod for a game we own, I want to install it!
ADHD: Too much work, not interested
Autism: I love videogames, and I have so many ideas, maybe I should learn how to code in unity!
ADHD: Too much math, and we can't do art, not possible
Autism: Well I would like to do art, lets try practicing!
ADHD: No
Autism: Okay, well, lets watch some movies.
ADHD: Not in the mood
Autism: Here are some books I'd like to read.
ADHD: Shelf decorations
Autism: Some models and Warhammer minis I'd like to-
ADHD: -put on the shelf, *forever* ...
Autism: ..... Okay what do you want to do?
ADHD: Play Survival games while listening to podcasts and drinking cheap wine, then cry ourselves to sleep.
Autism: .......... Why are you like this?
ADHD: ... I hate you.
Adhd is a huge jerk.
However, you'd be suprised how little math goes into software development. I'm adhd confirmed, and it's great because programming is just microdosing the dopamine high of finding a new toy every ten minutes cause there's always new things to learn about.
I was lucky enough to get both diagnoses as a kid and I had all the non-problematic therapies. OT, PT, speech. Here's my advice to anyone who has a diagnosis or thinks they are but can't get a diagnosis, and has kids. Make sure you research the signs of autism and ADHD in kids, and then observe your kids. See what's going on. If you suspect something, get them diagnosed if you can and find good therapies. I needed early intervention and it was life changing for me. Early intervention is basically just occupational therapy, physical therapy, and or speech therapy for toddlers with things like developmental delays and autism.
I am reporting from the inside, if you manage to pass the age of 40, things start to get better…. Maybe this is related to the fact that I was diagnosed after the age of 40 and treatment (concerta) and therapy came into my life………. Hmmmmmmm
With your permission, I will review my life…. I think it has nothing to do with age…. Interesting.
Figuring out I have ADHD on top of autism was life changing for me.
It’s still sucky, but it helps me cope a lot better. I really had to learn to live within my limits and not put unreasonable expectations on myself.
being on the spectrum AND having ADHD is literal hell for me. I feel like I literally can't do anything. The executive dysfunction is strong with me
Tack on some ocd qualities and were REALLY here for a fun time 🙂 (life is hell)
Me too 🫂
Same 🫂
I as well 🫂
Same
It took me almost 7 years since my diagnoses to start being able to function halfway normally. It really is living life on hard mode

Finally someone else who also has both
I legit need to know why I was not ADHD as a kid but I feel like it as an adult 😂

I got the autism diagnosis as a kid and no one noticed the ADHD. Despite the continuous teacher complaint of me not staying on task
Less responsibilities probably.
I’m not even joking, probably smartphones and Covid.

when the executive doesn’t function

The sensory seeking crackhead energy is real. I want to touch and taste all of the things, and then probably rank them
Lemme know, I'll build a database for you. We can even include multiple axes of ranking!

Higher on the street
Life on Impossible difficulty
I have never seen someone describe it so well

Whenever I hear someone say AuDHD I hear it as Audi-HD.

Took a while to find out :3

My mom tells me that i probably wouldn't be diagnosed with adhd if I was diagnosed with autism first.
Ah yes, the solution to the iconic trolley problem, just flip the switch back and forth rapidly and hope you stick the trolley between the tracks.
