Hi, person with high-functioning autism here. I was informed by a therapist that, due to the coping mechanisms most people learn as they grow up with conditions like these, they are incredibly difficult (if not impossible in some cases) to get an official diagnosis for.

My experience may not be relevant in this case but due to the overlap between autism and ADHD, it seemed relevant enough to share.
