A place for those that got both Autism and ADHD, those confirmed as one and are suspecting they got the other as well, and also everyone who is neither and just genuinely curious.
Since the combo comes with its own set of challenges, this shall be a place to ask for advice, vent, infodump about special interests and/or just vibe and meme.
Please be respectful. General niceness guidelines apply - formal rules will be added later if necessary.
In regards to medication and medical advice: Please take under consideration that this is only an online support community. Offered advice is always an expression of individual opinions or experiences and shall never be taken as substitute for a professional in-person assessment!
This is a SFW community. Sensitive topics are allowed, but must be properly labeled.

It also doesn't work for everyone even with following it strictly. Just because something works for some, doesn't mean it works for everyone.
Exactly. I simply don't wake up right away to my alarm. Never have. I have to have a second alarm because even with tasks to dismiss it I am not awake right away and will often fall back asleep. As for making sure you fall asleep and wake up at the same time, uh if someone is struggling to fall asleep and/or wake up, telling them to just fall asleep or wake up is like telling someone with asthma to just breathe. Not helpful.
Also, just because you do something and something else happens doesn't mean A caused B. I could say that going for walks is why I don't have heart issues but that doesn't make it true.
