Tidied the garage. I declare a victory of Autism over ADHD. #actuallyaudhd #actuallyautistic
Good morning! I was recently diagnosed with AuDHD. Quite a surprise since I'm a functioning adult but it also makes so much sense. I thought that I would feel a sense of relief but instead I've been feeling sad about the whole thing. Not ready to share with people I know so here I am.

En af mine hobbyer som barn var at kopiere spændende emner fra Lademanns Børneleksikon ned i en notesbog.
... Og alligevel blev jeg først diagnosticeret efter jeg blev 30 år.

Ja ich bin Autistin.
Ja ich habe ein komplexes ADHS.
Nein, ich bin nicht wie Sheldon Cooper und nein, ich habe auch nicht die Aufmerksamkeitsspanne eines Eichhörnchens.
Fragt wenn ihr Fragen habt.

Autism - doesn't like sudden unexpected change
ADHD - likes novelty
AuDHD theory - if I never make any plans, nothing can change last minute, and everything will be novel!
AuDHD reality - *never plans anything and never does anything*

Rare "good" ADHD moment: Thinking I forgot to start coffee, only to find that I forgot that I *started* coffee and it's now ready.

Evidently, I could be interviewed by someone on the phone instead? Also, most phone conversations are difficult for me.
There's a great acronym for this: #POSIWID.

Anyway, guys, just a reminder that the only way you can "stop autism" is to stop us autistic adults fucking and reproducing, so good luck with that, Tango Hitler.

RFK Jr said he wants to send folks who are taking antidepressants and ADHD medications to "wellness farms" in rural America where they will be forced to labor by growing organic food to "cure their addictions."

Making friends was much easier as kids
"do you want to be my friend?"
'yes'
And you also knew when you weren't friends anymore
"I'm not your friend anymore"
As adults there's so much guess work involved, it's draining.
