Is the bruised legs from punching yourself in frustration? That's why I would have bruises like that. That might not be the ADHD, though. It could be the autism or the borderline personality disorder. And it's actually a coping mechanism to hit myself instead of breaking things.

Nah, that's accidently whacking yourself on things. Doorknobs are my nemesis (hips/waist), as are countertop corners (knees) and cabinet doors (back of head)
