After a couple of years of suspicion of my autism, I finally got my diagnosis report in the mail today. I'd gotten a previous ADHD diagnosis some 25 years ago and it was confirmed on this diagnosis. So yeah, I'm officially AuDHD.

C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s !

Think of it as learning more about yourself...

and work on using the information.

AWESOME!! !! !! !! !! !! ! I'm AuDHD as well. I feel like neither autism nor ADHD fully encapsulate my mental experience, so just saying I'm autistic or I'm ADHD isn't enough. AuDHD is a very unique experience; I'm glad you got your diagnoses! I hope I get diagnoses soon.
