I hope this is the correct place to post this, and that it is allowed.
Good morning all,
I am just a little curious, those of you that are diagnosed with Autism, were you also diagnosed with ADHD too? I know that they say if you have autism or ADHD you are 50-70% more likely to have the other.
I had an ADHD assessment in November 2024, was advised I do not have a neurodivergent brain and just trauma, however was then diagnosed with autism in November 2025 and they advised that focused too much on my trauma for a 40 minute assessment! (currently going through process of a reassessment)
My daughter has autism, and has just been told to get tested for ADHD as they show signs of it.
My husband was recently diagnosed with ADHD and was told to test for Autism, as they have autistic traits.
I am in a never ending battle currently with funding issues ect, but I am just curious :)
thank you!!
