Stimulant Drugs to manage Autism

Hello, I would like to start taking a stimulant in order to help me with my autism but I’m not sure I will be prescribed any as most of the time stimulants are used to manage ADHD. I have spoken to my GP and they have referred me to see a psychiatrist. Do you think I will be able to get a stimulant medication without an ADHD diagnosis. I have an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Thank you for your time.

A poor, "from the hip" response there Rosie.....in my humble opinion. I think of MODS as protectors and Angels....not as Enforcers and intimidators of ....well, NOTHING. Not a single response...but you felt the need to -threaten, as I perceive it.

Not cool.
