sometimes wonder lately if i might hav a mild form of autism in addition to adhd, or whether its just that there's a lot of overlap between the two

like i definitely get obsessed with niche topics and hav trouble doing normal smalltalk, navigating social situations in groups and relating to other people a lot of the time, plus i do a lot of oral stimmy things (chewing hands & hair mostly)

but then like, maybe those are all adhd related??? hard 2 distinguish

@roadrunner agghh i have the exact same problem 😅 i mentioned it to my psychiatrist though and he said he doesn't think it fits, but that adhd is so close to the autism spectrum that there's bound to be some overlap...

@mimtschan aaaa glad its not just me! i dont think it REALLY fits with me either but its hard not overthinkin it sometimes...

somone from my adhd group said he thinks of them as like, cousins?? which i like
