What are my autism and ADHD symptoms and traits
Autism symptoms often go unnoticed, especially in adults. Join Brett, the AuDHD Boss, as they unpack their late-diagnosis journey and key autism traits that shaped their life and career.
A note about language: I’m using the term symptoms in the title of this video for the purposes of search, but what I am describing from my personal experience are my autistic and ADHD (AudHD) traits. As you read the resources you’ll find the use of the word traits rather than symptoms because "symptom" often has a negative connotation. Traits, however, speaks to a more lived experience. This video also only represents a small portion of my traits and just a sample of how it shows up in my life.
On this channel, I share insights about navigating ADHD and autism in the workplace, using a strengths-based approach to help neurodivergent professionals thrive.
In this video, I dive into my personal experience with autism symptoms as a late-diagnosed adult. Using reflections from my diagnosis journal, I explore key traits like masking, struggles with change, sensory sensitivities, social rules, executive dysfunction, and more. I also share how discovering the unique overlap of ADHD and autism symptoms led to my "aha" moments.
With over ten years of leadership experience and training in the corporate workplace, these videos are my views only and don't reflect or represent any of my current or past employers. I am not a medical professional, this video is for educational purposes only.
