When I was 16, I was diagnosed with High Functioning Autism, ASD. I have never fully believed this was the correct diagnosis.
Recently I picked up a book on ADHD and it was like reading a guide to my life, my experiences and difficulties. I am wondering, is it possible for ASD & ADHD to coexist? Also, is it common for ADHD adolescents & adults to be mis-diagnosed with High functioning autism? Thank you.
