Hi, there 👋
Are there people around who are looking to build potential friendships? I feel like I've been contacted by bots or something lately. Not sure what's going on, but I hope I can meet some people here who want to make actual connections. That being said, I hope you're all doing well.

What is something you’re proud of accomplishing this year?
For me, it’s getting a better handle on my anxiety. I’ve made real progress in being more open and honest with my doctor about how I’m feeling and what I need when it comes to medication. That’s been a big shift. I’ve also gotten clearer about the kind of energy I want around me—who I choose to spend time with, and who I no longer make space for. It’s been a year of advocating for myself in quiet but powerful ways, and I’m really proud of that. Now it's your turn lets celebrate something we are proud of about ourselves. #ADHD #ADHDInGirls #MentalHealth #BipolarDepression #Depression #Addiction #Neurodiversity #Anxiety

Just diagnosed
On Tuesday I was diagnosed with autism and ADHD (well, intense anxiety too but I had already had confirmation of that.)
I’m actually feeling very down, which I didn’t expect. I have strongly suspected that I was autistic since April of 2024, so I thought the official diagnosis would mostly feel like confirmation, validation and relief. But I feel very alone and like I’m grieving a new overwhelming loss.
It doesn’t make sense to me because I’ve been processing the possibility (probability) of autism for over a year, ADHD for some months now. I thought I had already experienced a lot of the grief, confusion, sadness, anger, etc. that can come with such a realization about oneself (especially when learning about it in mid-adulthood.)
It seems like I only experienced some of those very difficult feelings, maybe only a little bit of them…like a ‘tip of the iceberg’ kind of situation. And that now I’m feeling the FULL ‘weight’ of it.
I’m 43 and don’t have anyone around me who can really understand. My daughter was diagnosed recently too, but she’s 20 and her life experience has been very different than mine,…in a good way that I am very thankful for. Plus, she’s my daughter and I have never been one to lean on my children for emotional support.
Can anyone relate? Anyone have words of support or advice or encouragement? I feel like I’m ‘sinking’ and have nothing to grab onto right now other than this site, this community.
Thank you for reading.

No groups for AuDHD yet?
Why not? Community is needed for this population, maybe even separately for the male presentation and the female presentation.
AuDHD is a situation where someone has ADHD and is on the Autism Spectrum at the same time. The presentation of seemingly conflicting features create special challenges for those who have both.
If you think this might be you or someone you love, learn all about it! It’s very tricksy!
