    Check out the Aspergers vs. ADHD thread.

    Short answer is one doesn’t mean the other, though they do co-occur. (I have both)

    I’ve been told by a mom with a child with autism that there is a high co-morbidity with ADD. It doesn’t mean that ADD=Autism, but just that they occur together frequently.

    I thought I had several Aspergers traits before I even considered ADD, but now I’m thinking I have both.
