I think my other half might be neurodivergent too

When we first started talking I asked him if he was autistic. I won’t go into details why… but I just thought there was something different about him. 6 years later I got diagnosed with autism and adhd. Yes what are the chances of that? Anyway, now he suspects he might have adhd. I actually think he has both autism and adhd but I can’t be certain. Obviously Im not a professional. but a lot of neurodivergent people get along better with fellow neurodivergent people.

Sorry to hear that. I cant offer much - apart from a bit of emotional support. The Daughter has autism - and even now - i struggle to understand her. Emma has the better handle on that.

Corinne definitaly is drawn to other people with the same condition tho.

Random possible offensive comment but it seems everyone is getting diagnosed with autism Albert Einstein Eminem and almost every smart person

I wonder if this “learning disability” is incredibly over diagnosed like massively overdiagnosed there’s NOTHING wrong with EINSTEIN

Sorry if I offended anyone im just s skeptical that any of the people I mentioned have it

What is it then I’ve seen people with autism not be able to speak and then you hear of Albert Einstein and im like wtf you know what I mean

And I sincerely apologize to anyone im offending I just wanna know

It’s a spectrum, some can speak others struggle with social cues and in social environments. I don’t know about Albert Einstein… I dint get diagnosed until I was 38

nice … but if he is only adhd I think we got the kind where he likes to take the time with everything and I got the kind where I feel the need for everything to be done now. its frustrating.

I might be about the adhd… not sure about the autism but I do think about it… I can’t quite pinpoint exactly why.
