ADHD+Autism

Very annoying. Most ppl already struggle to understand ADHD. Now try to explain autism or what it feels like when you have both. But then again, I also don't fit in with the autism crowd cause my autism is just light enough that I recognize my mistakes but I can't fix them.

I mean tbf how could someone understand autism if I don't really understand it myself. How could I, I've been born with a warped brain, I have no comparison.

You can kinda understand through extensive observation, but there's only so many comparisons you can make since every person is unique.
