@maikel @actuallyadhd autism's strength lies in refinement.
as an #AuDHD I like my novelty in art and learning and social media, and my routine/refinement in everything else.
I definitely work, think and express myself an order of magnitude better using asynchronous communication. I'm aware. That's why every Friday I wrote a report for Survation, we then on Monday discussed it, the CEO and I.
Normally he used it too with shareholders in mind.
I should bet back to this.
The ways I work the most comfortable had a lot more to do with autism than with ADHD. I do not require novelty, I require routine. In fact I hate novelty at work and prefer structure and continuous building up and progressing over a solid foundation.
When people keep moving that foundation or the thing I should be focusing on, work becomes a nightmare and start to burn out.

If I want to be somewhere at 6:30pm, I have to start planning and preparing to get there the night before. Am I alone in this?
Vous avez des psys pour de la thérapie familiale *en visio*, qui soient formés sur la transidentité & les neuroatypies ? Ou même juste des assos qui pourraient pointer vers des psy adapté·es ?

That's a manifesto in a paragraph.
"ADHD meds made it possible to land my dream job but medicated me was an untested creature and trying to do too much (because I could), this led to severe autistic burnout. If I couldn't live the life I wanted, if I was so exhausted and lapsing in and out of shutdowns and depression and found daily life so freaking hard, I didn't know what was left. I retreated to writing."

OMG this too is so me!
@reiver @josemurilo I voted Yes! But let me explain my point of view.
I have been programming for over 15 years… but I am also an #AuDHD who was diagnosed less than five years ago. Also I've been involved in an accidental that affected my whole left arm. I can still type with it, but too much of it results in long periods of pain.
Also, besides working with computers, I am a full-time nurse student.
There are so many things I want to code, but I simply don't have the time or energy to do it. Telling an AI to create a simple loop, a class or even a module boilerplate really helps me a lot!
So, please, help me!

Today I have a follow up appointment with the Adult Autism service after being diagnosed as autistic a week or so ago.
This is a chance for me to ask any questions I may have.
What would you ask if you had the chance?

Hello friends.....
It seems that setting a release date on your track on Bandcamp doesn't actually mean they'll actually release it then.
So.... the first track from my new project, AarDHD, is live for streaming before it should be, if someone were to give you the URL. 😉

Ich suche gerade Bücher zum Thema Autismus bei Frauen. Es gibt mittlerweile viele - kann jemand welche empfehlen oder von welchen abraten?
Und kennt jemand vielleicht "Chaos, Kinder und Konfetti" von Natalia Lamotte? Da geht's spezifisch um Neurodivergenz und Elternschaft.

This is a wonderful novella-like article in Ought Magazine by my friend Kajsa Isakson, very worth a read!
