ASD paired with other disorders

Anyone else here deal with ASD paired with other issues? For me, it's FAS. Any insight would be appreciated. I tried a similar thread that got ZERO attention, I need to know how ASD & FAS influence each other.
 
If I can learn more on this subject, it will help me understand myself more. Frankly there is a lot I don't understand about how AS or FAS. Both Kim and I have both, as well as other people I know.
 
I have ASD with a lot of mental illness thrown in for fun, but I don't know much about how it relates to other things.
 
There isn't much research done into these things, unless it's depression and anxiety you can pretty much forget about it.
 
So the big talking brains have left us ASD +FAS people flapping in the breeze? :( I'm a contused jumble of impulses, like static on a TV screen, or 3 channels coming in at once.

Yes, ASD and ADHD.

Agreed. Separate diagnosis are just that. What you need to know how the two interact and how you can get specific help.

Caring people and something to keep me busy is the best help I can think of. I do want to learn more, though.
