AuDHD refers to simultaneous autism + ADHD.

Some symptoms appear to "cancel out" each other from an external perspective.

my neighbour’s son has autism with adhd. Their son was preyed upon by a gang. and my nephew has autism with adhd but presents very differently. Hopefully he will grow to not be so easily taken as the neighbour’s son. it’s so tragic.

my niece has adhd. Their father had adhd but again, very different.

No two are exactly the same.

It’s a massive stretch to say simply being atypical means you’re invulnerable to peer pressure. If anything it’s been quite the opposite.

And as per my question above regarding descriptive criteria of atypical, are we or are we not including even just adhd as part of the argument here for what is described as ‘neurotypical’? Cuz if so I would beg to differ that we’re just randomly calling out criteria of what defines as ‘neurotypical’ such as drug use and predatory cults. My friends and relatives with adhd (struggling with addiction) would be the last to use ‘neurotypical’ to describe their experiences when it comes to how it’s been diagnosed and picked out in school years.

You edited your original post. I thought you were unaware of what AuDHD meant. I'm not for or against anything anyone else wrote, mostly because I'm half-reading while intermittently socializing with inlaws on Christmas eve.

Carry on.

Edit: wait, it's christmas right now. whatever. Happy hannukah.
