I'm not diagnosed either (because somehow you can't have autism and ADHD at the same time ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯). Whether or not I do have it, the improvements made to my life by taking advice for ADHD folks have been great.

That’s not true! That was old school dsm speak. I was also told this lie, but it is very possible to have both. And if you have autism, you’re more likely to have adhd (but not the other way around).

Yeah I was being somewhat tongue-in-cheek, because I've been having trouble getting a dual diagnosis while showing a lot of ADHD symptoms...like I said, maybe I don't have ADHD but it's really strange how everything I read about it has been so close to my personal experience.

This is one of the form my dr asked me to complete. (Well the 61 question version, this ks the 25 ADHD questions) https://www.mdapp.co/wender-utah-adhd-rating-scale-calculator-182/#here

I'll give this a look through shortly, thank you!
