Officially Audhd

So today it became official I have now also been diagnosed with adhd so I believe that makes me Audhd. The last couple of weeks have been a lot I was diagnosed with Autism on the 26th of October and I got my adhd diagnosis this morning. 
I’ve found the autism diagnosis very difficult to come to terms with I’m not dealing with things very well at all. Once I received that diagnosis I absolutely knew in myself adhd was going to follow just based on how my mind works so it wasn’t as much of a shock. 
My next steps forward are potentially start medication but have got to wait for further appointments now. 
Hi to any new people on here Wave tone1 and thanks for reading.

  • Hi J0nny, 

    I am glad you have received both diagnosis's. That can be a lot for you to process, please be kind with yourself. 

    In case its helpful you can read more about post-diagnosis of autism here. It can be very difficult to come to terms with and I am sorry to hear you are not dealing with things very well. I hope that with time and learning more about Audhd and yourself, things will get better for you. 

    Best wishes,
