- I have Asperger Syndrome which is an autism spectrum condition and a full diagnosis of Adult ADHD which are characterised by impairments in social communication, social interaction and social imagination. I also have a rigid and somewhat unpredictable routine. I also experience obsessive rituals, some a bit overwhelming. But I have a talent in articulate creative writing skills and possess a photographic rote memory. I have sensory sensitivity and get upset by loud noises, bright colours or lights, and notice the texture and consistency of certain foods more making my dietary choices extremely limited or restricted to certain food components. I dislike conflict and lies. The Adult ADHD also makes me very moody and cross.
Dear @heh, I need to take my elderly father's advice and not answer the door to anybody or ask my Carers or Care Providers to text me when they come to visit me and are downstairs ringing at my communal door. Max can be ver abusive and his shouting and swearing frightens and shocks me plus his unpredictability due to his excessive drinking and mind-altering intoxication. I shall email my care coordinator about this matter, @heh.
