A place for those that got both Autism and ADHD, those confirmed as one and are suspecting they got the other as well, and also everyone who is neither and just genuinely curious.

Since the combo comes with its own set of challenges, this shall be a place to ask for advice, vent, infodump about special interests and/or just vibe and meme.

Please be respectful. General niceness guidelines apply - formal rules will be added later if necessary.

In regards to medication and medical advice: Please take under consideration that this is only an online support community. Offered advice is always an expression of individual opinions or experiences and shall never be taken as substitute for a professional in-person assessment!

This is a SFW community. Sensitive topics are allowed, but must be properly labeled.

So I know that despite the classic portrayal of an autist being someone who is asexual, many of us are at the opposite end of the scale. Yet if you search for Lemmy communities, there are several for asexual folk and none for hypersexual folk. Is there any good resources for us to rant/support each other/talk about our struggles? If it were specifically for neurodivergent folk, that would be a great bonus.

I think I might be one of them. Aside from other good points with the other comments, yeah the struggle is real. My sexuality has toned down a bit as time passes but it's still a pretty big thorn on my side where sex constantly trying to take front and center occupation of my mind. I just wanna live my life lol.

I don't see why you can't rant here

Mine goes up and down depending on my mood generally but I generally want to have sex 2-8 times a day. My fiance is happy to reciprocate pretty much every evening, but she's not always there. I also have to go to work, where the majority of my colleagues are women, and my kids daycare where one of the teachers has really wide hips and a big ass, Jesus Christ she's hot, I swear I literally fucking drooled last time I saw her. Or the fucking supermarket where the cashier constantly gives me suggestive looks

Constant feelings of sexual frustration.

Are you on Adderall? That stuff makes it worse for me

Rits, but I always forget to take them.
