Autism and ADHD - Talking about daily life organisation in this video. ADHD is often cooccurring with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. I asked my friend Jess from How To ADHD to talk about organising daily life tasks with ADHD. Autism and ADHD comorbidity is very common with people on the autism spectrum. Children with autism may have issues in organising and organisation, this is all down to executive function. the ADHD Autism connection is such a strong one that this video is designed to help someone relate to some of the struggles. I personally have difficulties with with trying to stay organised and it is due to the issues autism presents. This impacts my daily life and my mental state. Mental health is also impacted due to bad organisation, and can lead to other issues like burn outs, meltdowns and panic attacks.
