I’m asking because I may have ADHD, but it’s hard for me to figure out if I do. Any ideas on how I can figure that out? I plan to eventually get assessed for ASD, and if I think ADHD may be likely, I’ll get assessed for that as well.

    I was formally diagnosed with PDD-NOS at a very young age, which was later re-diagnosed as Asperger’s Syndrome due to technicalities during a reevaluation. I wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD (without hyperactivity) until my fifth grade teacher was very concerned about severe issues with attention and excessive daydreaming that were likely previously dismissed as relating to my Asperger’s syndrome.
