Someone asked me how I think about the difference between autism and ADHD in my own life. I gave this answer, I wanna post it publicly so others can provide feedback too.

I dunno how "accurate" this is because I dunno how I feel about these labels being treated as distinct? Autism is the thing that makes me unable to relate to other
The above is my contribution to the "What does it look like to be #ActuallyAutistic and #ADHD at the same time?" discourse.

Please share your own takes if you share this neurotype! #AutisticADHD
...huh. I'm not sure if I like this framing or not, because ADHD has needs too, and Autism has wants.

But I can TOTALLY see how this framing can emerge, because they feel like they're at different levels. Autism feels more rigid? ADHD more indulgent?
