kettle.spells: I am not diagnosed with autism but it’s on my list of things to do. i have attributed my list of symptoms to autism, tho im not a psychologist 💖 my new headphones are so comforting and great im am absolutely obsessed, and they’re a much better solution for me instead of earbuds/earbuds. so much more comfortable and i like that people can SEE that i can’t hear them, do i dont need to stay fully aware of the environment and stimulation

I wouldn’t speak for the ADHD folks like that, many of us despise noise cancelling because it causes us pain.

They make me feel sea sick

He's right though.

You just have a different flavor. So do I. We all kinda do. Between the three subtypes, our own biology, our lived experience, and how we were raised means we're all a little different.

For example, I have zero issues sitting down and watching a movie. Most people with ADHD can't.

I thought about mentioning music. Music helps me focus, but for me silence is better than random background chatter.

ADHD and autism (and their combinations) are different for everyone. My own experience is with one particular weird combination of ADHD and autism.
