Hi I'm Matthew just thought I'd sign up to this because I don't talk too to many people hence my poor converation skills lol and people like myself seem to have the same problem so I thought I might aswell join the cool crowd.
Anyway just a bit I'm a 22 year old male been diagnosed with Autism (A mild form) since I was too young to remember and I have your typical difficulties so here it goes what are your struggles and advantages of having autism?
What are your hobbies? and tell me whatever about yourself really? Look forward to hearing from people :)

Yes, that's common to have both ADHD and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). I have both. ADHD diagnosis came first, then I was referred for an ASD assesment and diagnosis.
This NHS report is interesting guide into how ADHD and ASD overlap.
