We be self diagnosing here? You know ADHD people also experience this without having autism?

yes i’m aware of overlap and symptoms. this is just one example of a bunch of reasons i believe i may be audhd, which we know is undiagnosed in afab people. i also had two psychiatrists tell me i didn’t have adhd either (because i masked too well) before the third one finally believed me, so i’m not inclined to truly take an assessment at face value unfortunately

Because of the amount of fakers there are nowadays I’m inclined not to take self diagnosers at face value. Don’t be advertising yourself as having a disability if you’re not 100% certain you have it..
