    Bullet Journal - Asperger and ADHD

    Hi guys! I have Asperger, and though I'm not officially diagnosed yet, I'm quite sure I have ADHD as well. I thought I had dyslexia, but realized it was ADHD just recently. It was a helpful finding for me as it would give me some treatments and strategies I could use in daily life. I found...

    Future Research You want to see

    I read all of your comments! Thank you so much, guys! I agree with a lot of your comments, especially letting non-autistics to understand our meltdowns, overloading or shutdowns, as well as misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis for further research.

    Help. I'm becoming more anxious and angry everyday

    My therapist suggested me to use headphone instead of earphones when I find some noise I can't stand. I understand the sensory issues you mentioned and I think you're getting more sensitive to more things than before. How about taking a walk, doing yoga, going to see animals etc.? I find riding...
