AuADHD is not an uncommon diagnosis. Were you considered a gifted student? It tends to slip under the radar in very intelligent kids.

Show me a gifted program kid that isn't diagnosed autistic or ADHD and I'll show you an autistic or ADHD kid that just so happens likes to read and learn.

Not to imply that competence is neurodivergence but the gifted program guidelines aren't just "is smart," they just oh so coincidentally map very closely on to the traits of a diagnosable kid who might slip under the radar because they're not constantly being disruptive.
