You may be ADHD if...

You woke up all excited that it's Sunday, and October.

You pet your son's leather boot goodnight, thinking it's your cat.

You take it as an insult when people call you a child because of your disorganisation

You often get told to stop talking so much

Your impulses are the main cause of most of your social difficulties (the rest are caused by RSD and anxiety)
You then doubt your ASD diagnosis because it seems all your social problems are caused by classic ADHD symptoms

You remember the dates of people's birthdays but somehow forget when they're coming up. For example if someone's birthday was on 20th of October and you knew that, but it's the 19th
of October and you suddenly realise that you forgot to get them a card or gift.

When you called 999 and they asked if you wanted police, ambulance or fire brigade, you replied with "hello".
(It was my first time I'd ever called 999 mind you).

You just noticed you've been wearing your bluetooth headphones for about two hours since the music stopped.

You keep thinking your food must be burning in the oven but you don't have enough executive function to get it.

When you finally go to get it, you realise you never turned on the oven or put the food in.

It didn't occur to you that burning food might smell.
