Autistic with ADHD
Hi, I recently found that I am little autistic as well on top of my already diagnosed ADD.
I am okay with doing work(strong focus on data analysis) because my company has strong writing culture, and almost every communication is done on slack msgs or e-mail. Which helps me a lot understading what is going on because I really lack attention on auditory information.
But recently I burnt out because I overfocused + anxierty. This especially happens when I have to sit in a group of people to discuss something, because I cannot understand all the dynamics, communications, even jokes going on among many people.
Maybe this is why I used to solve math problems during break time when I was in school, and majored in statistics in college to stay away from group activities and presentation, etc. Because I cannot understand group converstions well amd dont have much opinion always.. but mathematics always made sense to me.
Does anyone have similar experience? How did you cope with this?
