Comment on What could be wrong with me?
codapine@lemm.ee 9 months agoYes - I’m considering this about myself recently, that I have been undiagnosed ASD and ADHD. Try the test on the ADHD Centre’s website, and cross-reference with the Aspie test perhaps. Then if you get positive results, take these to your local (or even the ADHD centre or another nearby private clinician, since the waiting times could be quite long 3-10 years in the UK).
I can definitely relate to those issues and it matches with my yet-unconfirmed, highly suspected case of AuDHD. It’s quite common to have both.

I ended up just accepting I must be ASD (since there is no medication for it it doesn’t really matter, I just keep myself aware of things I can do to improve my quality of life, where possible), and got diagnosed with ADHD in Taiwan (took a short morning and <£50 including meds, certs and whatnot.
