I got the diagnose of autism but I don’t know if I’m ADHD. But now I’m kind of worried because I see this relation pretty often, it feels like you must have ADHD if you have autism.
How do you know you have ADHD (except consulting a doctor)?

I’m fairly sure that is my sister, shes got an ADD diagnosis but she seems to have some lacking understanding of some social cues, which to me indicates that shes more likely autistic than ADD (there are more signs too, but it feels wrong to write them to strangers online)
Autistic women are very often misdiagnosed since “good girl” syndrome hides some aspects of their difficulties. I know other cases of girls with autism getting ADD diagnoses as well.
