Hello. My name is Lex. I am a nanny for a counselor who specializes in ADHD and Autism. She has told me that, in her observations, I have borderline Asperger's. That I have some traits of it. She recommended this website because I'm trying to make more friends with ADHD and Aspergers. So Hello!

Thank you. I was looking over the website and I thought I saw something about Autism and ADHD. Is this website for Autism only? (Or can people who "have traits" of autism join as well?) because I mainly have ADHD. It seems like my Aspergers isn't as severe or bad as my ADHD.

We even have quite a few people here without autism/another neurological condition. ADHD and autism are very closely related anyway. There is another sub-forum where you can post things about other conditions you may have as well. I post about my OCD there, and my autism in the General Autism Discussion (you can post about ADHD in the General Autism Discussion as well).
If you don't mind me asking, what traits do you have? I'm just curious
. I'm almost the opposite of you- I have autism diagnosed but traits of ADHD! Welcome to Wrongplanet, by the way
! Anybody is welcome here, no matter what their neurological makeup is!

! Anybody is welcome here, no matter what their neurological makeup is!Hello Stampy! I just logged back in and got your message. My aspergers traits are I like routine and get really upset if the routine is disturbed, I am not very good with social cuts, I have a very hard time making and keeping friends, in very picky when it comes to food (it has to be cooked a certain way, the different foods on my plate cannot touch each other), Um I think that is it....

Thanks for replying! I have those problems too. My ADHD traits are that I can't focus on most things, I seem hyperactive because I stim a lot, I wander off whenever I'm supposed to be doing something, and I'm just generally pretty easily distracted. I'm a picky eater too! What is your favorite food?
