I’m asking because I may have ADHD, but it’s hard for me to figure out if I do. Any ideas on how I can figure that out? I plan to eventually get assessed for ASD, and if I think ADHD may be likely, I’ll get assessed for that as well.

ADD was very obvious as every single school report i ever received had a variation of “doesn’t pay attention in class but otherwise no complaints”
Took me embarrassingly long to even understand that other kids chose not to pay attention because they didn’t want to instead of not being able to.
Autism had been mentioned a single time but besides two unfortunately shallow questions was never properly looked for.
Then after depression and some level of identity crisis during a year of psych war someone finnaly saw trough my unintentional masking and gave me a more modern explanation of what autism actually means.
