Autism and ADHD can share several traits—and some people experience both. This free two-page guide offers an easy-to-understand comparison without pretending that a checklist can diagnose you.

Use the included worksheet to document how attention, change, social situations, sensory needs, and childhood patterns show up in your actual life.

Inside you’ll find:

  • Common experiences associated with autism

  • Common experiences associated with ADHD

  • Areas where autism and ADHD may overlap

  • Questions to help you examine the pattern behind a behavior

  • A reflection worksheet you can save or bring to a provider
