sadly, people don't like to believe that i show symptoms because i already have autism.

i like to look at the dsm for showing signs but i don't self-diagnose or anything.

here is a doc on the signs i show.

i am THE inattentive adhd ever.

Welcome to co-morbiditiy! AuADHD is a thing, you will be fine, and the good news is there are medications to help manage the ADHD part of that diagnosis.

Your Dr should be able to run the test, or get you to a specialist who can run the tests.

Since the last DSM (DSM5) you should have no problems getting a diagnosis. They used to be mutually exclusive, but they no longer are.
