1
When autism and ADHD show up together, they don't just stack on top of each other, they create a unique mix of strengths, struggles, and contradictions.
2
You might crave routine, but get bored by it.
3
Need structure, but resist it.
4
Want connection, but feel overwhelmed by it.
5
That combination has a name, AUDHD.
6
And despite how common it is, many people spend years being diagnosed with only one or neither.
7
Today we're talking about what AUDHD actually is, why it gets missed so often, and the signs that autism and ADHD may be showing up together.
8
The interesting thing is that autism and ADHD don't just happen to occur in the same person sometimes.
9
They actively interact in ways that make each one harder to spot.
10
Take novelty and sameness, for example, okay?
11
ADHD brains are wired to chase novelty.
12
New information, new stimulation, things to focus on.
13
Autistic brains tend to find safety and regulation in routine and predictability.
14
Put those two wirings in one nervous system
15
and you get someone who feels real distress when their schedule gets disrupted
16
and also goes stir crazy when nothing changes for too long.
17
And on paper that looks contradictory but in practice it's the most consistent thing that AUDHD adults describe.
18
Or take masking, another good example.
19
ADHD traits like impulsivity, fast talking, jumping into conversations can look a lot like easy, confident social engagement from the outside.
20
That can actually camouflage autistic social differences that are like underneath it
21
because the energy reads as someone being outgoing even
22
when the underlying social processing is like working overtime to keep up with it.
23
And researchers have started calling this bi-directional masking.
24
Each condition can, it's like they cover for the other, which means clinicians screening for one frequently miss the second one entirely.
25
You want to hear something wild?
26
Until 2013, so 13 years ago,
27
the diagnostic manual didn't even allow both diagnoses in the same person.
28
That rule is gone.
29
Okay.
30
They, they fixed it.
31
But a lot of clinicians think of 2013.
32
I mean, I graduated school in what?
33
Oh nine.
34
So a ton of clinicians still mentally sort people into one box instead of checking for both.
35
And here's how big a gap that's left.
36
Roughly 45% of adults with ADHD.
37
So almost half of adults with ADHD show clinically significant autistic traits.
38
But in a recent analysis of nearly 2 million insurance claims,
39
only 1.7% of adults with ADHD had an actual autism diagnosis on file.
40
So almost half of them have clinically significant traits, but only 1.7% of them are actually diagnosed.
41
And that gap is why this video exists.
42
A 2025 neuroimaging study found something that actually supports this experience.
43
And don't you just love it when research is in line with what we already know is happening.
44
People with co-occurring autism and ADHD show distinct patterns of brain connectivity,
45
different from autism alone and different from ADHD alone.
46
The researchers described it as its own neurodevelopmental profile, not simply an additive one.
47
Your brain is running one program that neither diagnosis fully describes as its own.
48
It's like AUDHD is its own third thing.
49
I just thought that was really important to note and also, you know, why maybe why it's so hard for people to get properly diagnosed.
50
I don't know.
51
Okay, let's get into what this can actually feel like day to day.
52
And the first experience I want to talk about is sensory and emotional regulation can be amplified, not divided.
53
Like sounds, textures, lighting, crowded rooms, these can already cause a lot of distress for autistic people on their own.
54
When you add ADHD's emotional intensity and rejection sensitivity on top of that,
55
and small sensory irritations don't like stay small, they get amplified.
56
Like picture this, okay?
57
You're at a family dinner.
58
The overhead light is just slightly too bright.
59
There's a fork scraping a plate somewhere down the table
60
and your sister just made a comment about your job
61
that probably wasn't even meant as a dig but it felt like a dig.
62
For most people any one of those things or even all of them together it just kind of rolls off easily.
63
We might not even notice
64
but for an AUDHD brain all three of those things are landing in our nervous system at the same time
65
and there's no clean way to separate the sensory irritation from the emotional one.
66
By the time dessert comes out, you're not just uncomfortable, you're done.
67
And you have no idea how to explain to anyone at the table why a fork
68
and fluorescent lighting and an offhand comment just took you from fine to overwhelmed in like 30 minutes.
69
That's two regulation systems firing at once with no buffer in between them.
70
Next up, let's talk about masking getting doubled, not split.
71
If you're AUDHD, you're often running like two separate masking projects simultaneously.
72
The effort to appear like socially fluent and easy to be around, which is the autism side of that mask.
73
And then the effort to seem focused, organized, and in control, which is like that ADHD side.
74
Both of those styles of masking are like full-time jobs and you're working both of the shifts at once.
75
You're like doing double duty.
76
So like think about a work meeting.
77
You're tracking the conversation closely enough to respond at the right moments.
78
That's kind of like an ADHD effort.
79
You're fighting to stay, like have your attention be more locked when it wants to drift.
80
So we're doing that in the meeting while also monitoring our facial expressions, our tone, whether we're making the right amount of eye contact,
81
whether our questions sound natural instead of rehearsed.
82
All of that is the autism effort running right alongside the ADHD effort and neither project, like we're running these two shifts.
83
And it's like, we don't even get to clock out.
84
Like they're running at the same time.
85
And so by the time the meeting ends, you're completely exhausted because you've been performing your best focused and social self for over an hour.
86
And camouflaging research has consistently linked higher masking to worse mental health outcomes.
87
And that effect shows up most strongly in people managing both conditions together.
88
And I don't say that to bum you out.
89
I know that like sometimes research is not great, right?
90
We're like, oh, that sucks.
91
But I say it instead to like validate the burnout and exhaustion that you might be feeling all the time, because it's kind of telling us, yes, you have a right to feel that way.
92
Yes, research supports that.
93
Yes, it is.
94
It is harming your mental health.
95
So if you've been feeling more depressed or more anxious or just more tired in general, that might be why.
96
Next, executive function gets contradictory symptoms layered on top of each other.
97
I know that's like a complicated thing that I just said, but just hang with me, okay?
98
So ADHD makes starting tasks and holding attention difficult, okay?
99
Autism can add rigid, like all or nothing thinking about how a task gets approached once it does start.
100
So you might struggle to begin something, and then once you finally do, you can struggle to stop,
101
like struggle to switch tasks or even to tolerate the plan changing midstream.
102
It's like those two things working together again.
103
Like let's say you've been putting off a work project for two weeks.
104
You finally sit down on a Saturday and something clicks.
105
You know, the ADHD hyper focus kicks in and you're like four hours deep into it without noticing the time has passed.
106
Your partner reminds you that you have dinner reservations and asks, hey, you know, you want to get ready, let's go to dinner and
107
that should be a simple switch we should have known it was coming right
108
but instead it feels like being physically pulled out of something
109
because the autistic side of your brain has locked into the task as you know the plan now
110
and any deviation from the plan registers as disruption
111
that your system has to fight through not just a scheduling
112
change like oh I didn't realize it's six o'clock we got to go
113
and so what can happen is then you snap your partner over dinner plans
114
that you'd already happily made a few days ago.
115
And they have no idea that what just happened wasn't really about dinner at all.
116
People around you see inconsistency, like, oh, they can't start a task or can't stop a task, depending on the day.
117
But what's actually happening are two different executive function profiles competing for control of the same moment.
118
Does that make sense?
119
It's like they're both running alongside each other.
120
And so from the Outside, it looks like it doesn't make sense, but that's how our brain works.
121
And finally, diagnostic overshadowing makes the whole thing worse.
122
Again, fancy way of just saying that it's hard to get a proper diagnosis.
123
This is the clinical term for
124
when one diagnosis gets all the attention in an evaluation
125
and the second conditions traits get explained away as being part of the first.
126
Like an autistic child who can't sit still in class, who's inattentive and seems to drift off during instructions,
127
often gets that behavior filed under sensory overwhelm or social anxiety.
128
Nobody screens for ADHD because the autism diagnosis is already there on file.
129
And even if that explanation doesn't fully account for what's happening, they still just throw it under there.
130
This could also be like an ADHD adult who needs rigid routines, becomes dysregulated or upset by certain sensory environments, and struggles with unstructured social situations.
131
All of those symptoms will get filed under anxiety
132
because the ADHD diagnosis already exists and anxiety is kind of like the easiest catch-all for whatever's left over.
133
Nobody asks whether autism might be present too.
134
Whichever diagnosis arrives first in someone's life, for whatever reason, tends to become the lens that everything else gets interpreted through.
135
Like the first label sticks and everything that doesn't quite fit gets quietly absorbed into it instead of getting its own evaluation.
136
If you watch the autism video,
137
you already know that diagnostic criteria for both ADHD and autism were built almost entirely around how young boys present.
138
Annoying.
139
Most of our, as we're learning, I'm sure you guys have all gone down this rabbit hole too, but if not most of our research into any medical ailment has been done on men
140
or boys like it's always looking at them and the reasoning
141
that they gave is that I think I might have mentioned this before is
142
that they always had said like well girls have their hormones
143
and women can get pregnant and that would throw off the study it's like
144
but shouldn't we have research on how this affects pregnant women
145
also like what we're birthing all the humans anyways back on back on point here.
146
Okay.
147
They were always built like autism and ADHD.
148
And a lot of other things were built about how young boys present.
149
Therefore, AUDHD, unfortunately, it's like it compounds that problem.
150
Women with AUDHD often get one diagnosis and it's usually anxiety or depression, sometimes ADHD on its own.
151
And the autism that's been happening probably since we were a kid, right?
152
It stays invisible because it's been compensated for so thoroughly that it doesn't look like autism to anyone watching from the outside.
153
Like I kind of talked about in the video, like we're pretty good maskers.
154
And so we can be so good at it that nobody even knows, thinks, even considers looking for it.
155
And so here's how that actually plays out in an evaluation, right?
156
I want to kind of walk you through what it would look like
157
if you went in for to get checked for this.
158
So a woman walks into a clinician's office describing burnout, social exhaustion, or maybe a pattern of feeling like,
159
you know, I'm just kind of like acting my way through all these social interactions.
160
The clinician, like the therapist or whoever, sees someone who makes eye contact, answers questions fluidly, seems engaged in the conversation,
161
and reads that as socially intact.
162
What the clinician doesn't see is that the eye contact is a rehearsed habit
163
that she built in her 20s because someone once told her that she came across cold without it.
164
They don't see that the fluid answers are the product of mentally drafting
165
and discarding three responses before saying the fourth one out loud.
166
And the social fluency
167
that ADHD's impulsivity and talkativeness can provide becomes the perfect cover for the social struggles that can come along with autism.
168
And the standardized screening tools, most of which were never designed to catch a masked presentation, they come back clean.
169
So she goes in to see the clinician and then she leaves with a diagnosis of anxiety, which isn't necessarily wrong, but it's just incomplete.
170
And this is also where rejection sensitive dysphoria or RSD becomes relevant in a way that's specific to this combination.
171
And I have an older video on RSD.
172
If you want more information on it, I'll link in the description.
173
But RSD already makes ADHD brains read neutral interactions as rejection, right?
174
Someone can look at us a funny way and we automatically are like, oh my God, they hate me.
175
Layer autistic social processing differences, right?
176
Social situations if we're autistic are really hard to read.
177
We're maybe not really sure.
178
Maybe, you know, I'm sure we've been learning our whole lives, but we're not always, we don't feel very confident.
179
So you put that on top of it where the rules of an interaction were never intuitive.
180
And then you get this certain kind of exhaustion from any social interaction.
181
Like if a friend takes four hours to respond to a text, the ADHD side of your brain immediately registers that as a sign that something's wrong.
182
And the rejection sensitivity flares before you've even confirmed there's anything to be rejected by.
183
That's ADHD, okay?
184
The autism side of your brain starts replaying the entire conversation that led up to that text.
185
You scan for the moment that you said something wrong
186
because you were never confident that you read the social cues correctly in the first place.
187
Now, these two systems are both convinced that you've done something wrong, but neither one is really able to tell you what.
188
And that can really suck, make it really hard for us to feel connected to other people.
189
And we can honestly, like I've heard from a lot of you that are ADHD,
190
it feels like you're almost like always at war with yourself or like walking on eggshells with people you're in relationships with, because you just, you just aren't sure.
191
I feel like when I was putting this video together, the thing that kept coming through to me was that it's like, it's just this lack of confidence, this lack of feeling sure in ourselves and like our way of interacting because,
192
because of all the different components of autism and ADHD and how they play together.
193
And so a lot of women with AUDHD describes spending decades believing that they were just too sensitive,
194
too intense, too disorganized, or too much when the real story was a misdiagnosis
195
and the support that should have come along with it.
196
This combination is its own profile entirely with its own internal logic, right?
197
It has its own way of working.
198
And once you understand that, a lot of the contradictions that made you feel broken or inconsistent, start making sense instead.
199
A proper evaluation for AUDHD needs to screen for both conditions specifically, not just which everyone presents first or is the loudest.
200
If you've already been assessed for one and the picture never, it just never quite fit, right?
201
Like it encapsulated a lot of things, but there's still stuff that doesn't work.
202
And you're like, wait, that doesn't make sense.
203
It's worth bringing up directly with your therapist or doctor.
204
ask whether the evaluation covered both not just the one that got flagged first
205
and if you spent years masking two things at once without knowing
206
that that's what you were doing give yourself some credit first of all for how much energy
207
that took but also
208
that you did the best you could with what you knew at the time
209
and instead of judging any of it we're always
210
so quick to judge ourselves right I want you to recognize how hard you've been working
211
and just pat yourself on the back for it because you survived you did the best to manage it all
212
next let's get into a few things that actually help so
213
that we can start feeling a little bit better right away
214
okay first let's build a transition buffer before you need one
215
that's the important piece before you need one okay remember the
216
Saturday hyper folks example where switching out of like a locked
217
in task felt I don't know it felt it felt like
218
getting like physically pulled out of something I've had a lot
219
of you tell me it's like it's almost like you you're being jerked away.
220
You're like, no, you don't want to let go of something.
221
So it's like you're pulled out.
222
It's uncomfortable and we hate it.
223
Unfortunately, willpower alone isn't going to make that reaction go away.
224
I know so annoying, but what helps is, is giving your brain a warning before the switch happens, not in the moment that it does happen.
225
So let's say we set that dinner reservation, right?
226
We talked about it with our partner a couple of days ago.
227
I want you to set a timer.
228
So even before we got in to that situation, like maybe in the morning, we set a timer for 10 minutes before we need to do something.
229
So in this case, you'd set it for, let's say dinner is at seven.
230
We need to leave the house at 630.
231
I'm going to have to get ready.
232
I'm going to have the timer go off at six.
233
So you set a timer before you need to actually stop, not at the moment that you need to stop.
234
Like give yourself that 10 minute window because it gives the autistic side of your brain, time to register that the plan is about to change.
235
And instead of experiencing the changes of sudden disruption, you can kind of move through it.
236
And I know that this sounds small, but for a lot of AUDHD adults, it's the difference between snapping at someone over dinner plans
237
that you made a couple days ago
238
and actually being able to just put the work down and go and enjoy a meal together.
239
Next tool, we have to catch the RSD spiral before it ruins everything.
240
It likes to ruin everything, right?
241
I talked a while back about the evidence collection method for separating your guilt from what actually happened.
242
and the same approach works here.
243
And it's especially useful for AUDHD because you're often dealing with two systems that are both insisting you did something wrong.
244
The rejection sensitivity and the social replay.
245
When a friend's slow text reply sends you spiraling, we're going to stop.
246
I want you to write down the actual evidence that something is wrong.
247
I said evidence, like imagine it in a court of law.
248
This is not the feeling that something's wrong.
249
These aren't thoughts.
250
Thoughts are not facts.
251
Feelings are not facts.
252
We're just going to write down the facts.
253
That's it.
254
Okay.
255
Because most of the time there aren't any.
256
Like what's the fact you have?
257
They haven't texted me back.
258
That's it.
259
Separating the feelings from the facts.
260
It unfortunately doesn't really make the feeling itself smaller.
261
It doesn't make it go away, but it can stop you from acting on a story that your brain told you with no facts to support it.
262
Let's give it a try, okay?
263
Another tool is to pick one place to stop masking on purpose.
264
You can't drop both masks everywhere.
265
That's not realistic for most of us, not to mention that it probably doesn't feel safe either, right?
266
It can be kind of scary, especially if you've been masking for so long.
267
But running double duty in every context within our life is what wears us out.
268
It's why a lot of us feel burnt out and overwhelmed.
269
So I want you to choose one relationship or one room
270
or just one hour of your week where you choose to stop performing.
271
Like stop tracking your facial expressions.
272
Stop pre-drafting your sentences.
273
I know it'll be hard at first.
274
We're just going to try.
275
Let your attention drift if it wants to drift.
276
Let it do it.
277
The exhaustion from masking is like cumulative.
278
So even one regular space where you're not working so hard, it can be helpful.
279
And you may even find yourself looking forward to it each and every week.
280
You can also try and name your top sensory stressors and remove just those.
281
You don't need to overhaul your whole environment.
282
That would be awesome, but it's also expensive and a lot of work.
283
But most AUDHD adults have two or three specific sensory triggers doing most of the damage, not a hundred small ones.
284
I know it can feel like that, but just hang with me, okay?
285
maybe one of the worst for you is overhead fluorescent lighting I mean who likes
286
that anyway it's horrible and funny story actually Sean worked one holiday season at the Gap
287
and he told me that the most exhausting thing wasn't even the folding
288
and refolding of all the clothes it was the lighting I
289
think we should just ban fluorescent lighting to be honest okay back to the point
290
but what could be triggering you most again fluorescent lighting it could be background chatter in open offices.
291
Maybe you're like in a cubicle kind of situation or having music playing too loudly in your space.
292
Or maybe it's like tags on your clothing.
293
Identify the two or three that bother you the most and let's solve for those specifically.
294
Like noise cancelling earbuds.
295
I'm a huge fan of Loops brand earplugs for this.
296
If you haven't checked them out, check them out.
297
Sean and I both have them.
298
They're great.
299
Or maybe we get a desk lamp instead of relying on overhead lighting.
300
Maybe we remove all the tags from our clothing or only buying clothes that don't have fabric tags, maybe at least not up in the neck, maybe on the side.
301
I don't know.
302
But these small targeted fixes do more here than trying to control everything at once.
303
And it's also, I think, more manageable this way.
304
Oh, and if you're pursuing an evaluation, ask for both by name.
305
I know it can feel pushy.
306
I've heard from a lot of you.
307
You're like, I don't want them to think that I'm trying to get a diagnosis.
308
This is your life.
309
And given everything we've covered about the limits and blind spots in the diagnosis process, we don't really want to leave it to the clinician to think of the second condition on their own.
310
So if you're going in for an ADHD assessment, ask directly whether autism is also being screened for and vice versa.
311
And bring specific examples from both lists like, hey, I think this is more ADHD.
312
Hey, I think this is more autism, but I have both of these.
313
You're allowed to advocate for the fuller picture instead of waiting for someone else to notice it.
314
Like I've always said, you know yourself and your experience best.
315
And naming what you're experiencing is honestly part of getting an accurate assessment.
316
That way your clinician can properly assess you and give you the right tools and resources.
317
A few weeks ago, I talked about the autism signs that women learn to hide.
318
And before that, I covered the ADHD signs that can get missed for decades.
319
And if you watch both of those videos and found yourself thinking, wait, both of these sound like me, you're not alone.
320
Trust me, I got a ton of messages and comments asking me about that, which is why I made this video.
321
And the tricky thing about AUDHD is that it often looks contradictory from the outside.
322
You crave routine, but get bored by it.
323
You want connection, feel overwhelmed by it.
324
You seek stimulation and then avoided at the same time.
325
And for years, a lot of people assume they must be getting something wrong because no single explanation seems to fit.
326
But maybe the reason none of the pieces made sense on their own is because they were never meant to.
327
Maybe what looks like inconsistency is actually two neurotypes interacting in real time.
328
And for many people, learning about AUDHD is about finally finding the framework that explains what they've been experiencing all along.
329
If this video resonated with you, make sure you watch my ADHD and autism videos from a few weeks ago
330
because together I feel like they paint a much fuller picture.
331
And I'd love to hear from you in the comments.
332
What's the most AUDHD thing you do?
333
What's the contradiction that makes perfect sense to you but leaves everyone else confused?
334
Let me know.
335
Thank you so much for watching.
336
Have a wonderful week and I will see you next time.

この動画で英語学習するとどんなメリットがある？
日常会話ではない、深く考えさせられるトピックの動画は、英語スピーキング練習に最適です。「AuDHD」についての説明は、論理的な展開や具体的な例が多く、シャドーイングによってリズムやアクセントを覚えながら、複雑な内容を伝える表現力も養えます。また、話者の自然な語調やポーズを真似ることで、実際の会話での流れを掴むことができます。
文脈の中で学ぶ文法と表現
- 「stack on top of each other」：「単に重なるだけでなく」という意味で、二つのものの関係を表す際に使えます。例えば、「Stress and lack of sleep don't just stack on top of each other, they make each other worse.」
- 「go stir crazy」：「退屈で発狂しそうになる」という口語表現。変化がない状況を表す時に便利です。「If I stay at home for a week, I'll go stir crazy.」
- 「cover for」：「～を隠す」「～の代わりを務める」。文中では二つの症状が互いに隠し合うことを表しています。「Her smile covered for her sadness.」
発音の難しい箇所に注意！
英語の発音を良くするために、この動画の中の単語に注目しましょう。「neurodevelopmental」（神経発達の）は長い単語ですが、「njuːroʊdɪˌvɛləpˈmɛntl」と発音し、アクセントは「vɛ」の部分に置きます。「camouflage」（隠す）は「ˈkæməflɑːʒ」と発音し、最後の「ʒ」は日本語の「ジュ」に近い音です。また、「impulsivity」（衝動性）は「ɪmˌpʌlsɪˈvɪti」と発音し、途中の「ls」の音をはっきり出すことが重要です。これらの単語を繰り返し練習し、シャドーイングで自然な発音を身につけましょう。
この動画を使ってshadowing siteで練習すると、発音やリズムだけでなく、論理的な話し方も学べます。ぜひ挑戦してみてください！

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
