Yeah I mostly mean inattentive type ADHD. My goal is to try to differenate between that is ADHD and that is ASD granted I know my test is very limited.

Yeah, I believe that ASD and ADD/HD may go hand in hand.

Oh the very reason you stress the point of certain subtypes in ADHD (inattentive, hyperactive and combined type) is my goal with ASD to show there are various subtypes and the word ASD covers way to much to be a good label.

You’re suggesting an inverse relationship between AS and ADHD. Think there is some truth in that however when I went to the doctor on Thursday she suggested two scale approaching at different angles intersecting at a given point. In which case I would be theoretically possible to be 100% of both. Thought in practice I think it would equate differently because I think ADHD greatly diminished the executive function and other things. So in practice it masks over AS in a very bad way.

Not sure what I'm suggesting in the big picture. I think from a practically stand point those who are more ADHD will be very different people than those that are more ASD.

Yeah I posted an abstract of a study here in the past which showed in many ways the problems associated with ADHD are more severe than the problems associated with ASD and they tend to not reduce in time as much.
