I have a lot of symptoms of both adhd and autism, but I’m not financially capable of getting a diagnosis right now, would someone with either of those conditions like to help me out to see if its worth it to save up the money?

      If insurance can cover it, try setting up a nuero psych. It can help with a diagnosis, and help you with the next steps. I understand if you're unable to financially cover it though, so I apologize if I sound insensitive.

      I've read that there is a lot of intersection with autism and ADHD in terms of symptoms - if you search of up ADHD and autism Venn diagram or ADHD vs autism, there are a lot of helpful sources that identify how they're different!

      I have adhd. For me, being diagnosed was not worth it, however I did not respond well to medication. If I had, I think the diagnosis would be very worth it. It also highly depends on how well you are coping with your environment. If I had been doing well, I wouldn't have even tried medication.
