My childhood best friend is ADHD, all but 1 of my other childhood friends is ADHD and about half of my current friends that I hang out with are either ADHD, on the autism spectrum or likely to be but as yet undiagnosed.

    I think it’s that neuro-diverse people tend to gravitate towards each other, so this is probably survivor’s bias. I definitely find that other people with ADHD are able to grab and hold my attention better than neuro-typical people and also they’re more understanding and forgiving when I’m flaky, or too hyperactive, or whatever.
