So shit like this is why autism goes undiagnosed & unrecognized so often. These will be true of *some* autistic people, but it really has nothing to do with anything. #ActuallyAutistic https://cdn....

And that's not even mentioning the fact that a lot of questions ignore the possibility that an autistic person may also have ADHD.

Like "It’s important to me to carefully plan any activities I am going to do". Ummm. I have ADHD, motherfuckers. Of course I don't carefully plan all my activities! How tf would I manage that when I'm fucking impulsive as all hell?

I do carefully plan A LOT of my activities, but "all/any" is so silly. It doesn't just ignore ADHD. It ignores the fact that people don't always act the same way in every situation. It's so weird to put things in such absolute ways. But the people writing diagnostic questions for autism don't cons...
