    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    Dear Aspi friend, let's not waste time arguing about the percentages. The point of my thread is: I'd be happy to meet someone like-minded. (However the branding and percentages.) Period.

    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    I know about the ASD stat you posted but was specifically looking for Asperger's, which is a smaller subset of it. The best estimate I found was 0,13% here: www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychiatry/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2023.1071181/full If you take the 28-70% comorbidity within the 0,13%...

    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    Thanks for the stats but it's not really important if there are 0.0284748% or 0.655438% like me. People like this are rare and I'd like to meet one. I actually had 1 incident where someone approached me at a party while I was dancing and shouted "You dance like my brain!". I asked her: "Tell...

    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    I feel like having both makes it harder to detect any of those 2 because we're too hyper for most to acknowledge us as having Asperger's. I have the feeling that people got my ADHD due to my high energy level but always thought I was an asshole because I "think and act like a bot" (quote from a...

    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    I'm happy to chat with anyone here and also meetup with fellow Aspis in Berlin. I was just asked to write an article on how it's living and working on AI with ADHD and Asperger's. That got me thinking about my condition specifically and interested in chatting with someone like me to determine...

    Anyone with Asperger + ADHD from Berlin?

    Hi, dear community. I hope you enjoy a nice Easter vacation and celebration. I found out about my ADHD when I was 36 and about Asperger's at 39. I'm now 46, half Greek and Austrian, and live in Berlin. Just researched and calculated that this combination is very rare and only occurs in apx...

    Asperger community in Berlin

    Dear like-minded friends (whom I haven't met yet), does anyone know of a meetup or something alike – for Asperger or Autistic people in Berlin? I googled and looked on various SoMe sites, e.g. Facebook, but couldn't find one... Thanks for any pointers, E.

    What is your dream job?

    I love nothing more than solving highly complex challenges on projects that somehow improve our world. That's why I've evolved into a high-end business problem solver – by combining multiple skillsets, e.g. marketing strategist, creative director, copywriter, and digital native. Sadly, I'm...

    Hi. I'm a creative with Asperger looking for a job in Berlin, Germany.

    Yeah. Thanks. See my above reply to other member. Creative workplaces mostly only virtue signal, but in real-life don't truly care. Sad. Bigly.

    Hi. I'm a creative with Asperger looking for a job in Berlin, Germany.

    Thanks. I'm well aware of the German situation and am in no shortage of work, because I love what I do. I also undertook your steps and googled, but currently mostly detail-oriented tech companies value autistic people. Sadly and especially advertising agencies with touchy-feely staff, don't...

    Hi. I'm a creative with Asperger looking for a job in Berlin, Germany.

    Hi friends, @Crossbreed: I'm not really counting on it and usually busy anyways, because "work always flows where its been done." – but since I love going the extra mile, I thought give it a try. @YabbaDabba: Cheers. @all who live in or visit Berlin: 1. I'm also open to meet in person...

    Hi. I'm a creative with Asperger looking for a job in Berlin, Germany.

    Dear like-minded tribe, I'm wondering, if anyone knows an employer in Berlin who'd like a Creative Director with Asperger? Since I can recall, I was always "the weird/funny kid/guy" and attributed it to having parents who are complete opposites: a super conservative Austrian mom from a small...
