Getting Diagnosed with ADHD

from Autistic POV · host Barbara Wilder

I got the results of my ADHD evaluation today and wanted to share it. The additional diagnosis will affect my content a bit going forward because I’m going to be focusing on both Autism and ADHD—mostly in regard to writing but I’ll probably talk about how it overlaps some of my other interests as well.I was told that I have ADHD with high impulsivity which explains a lot. To me, this was interesting because I did feel that autism didn’t really explain everything I’ve been dealing with, particularly in regard to my creative projects. This is a public episode.
