AuDHD
A place for those that got both Autism and ADHD, those confirmed as one and are suspecting they got the other as well, and also everyone who is neither and just genuinely curious.
Since the combo comes with its own set of challenges, this shall be a place to ask for advice, vent, infodump about special interests and/or just vibe and meme.
Please be respectful. General niceness guidelines apply - formal rules will be added later if necessary.
In regards to medication and medical advice: Please take under consideration that this is only an online support community. Offered advice is always an expression of individual opinions or experiences and shall never be taken as substitute for a professional in-person assessment!
This is a SFW community. Sensitive topics are allowed, but must be properly labeled.

What kind of things have you found to be sticking points?
If they've generally been the same sticking points across many potential partners, here's my 2¢:
Principles - IMO I find that us neurodivergents can be really principled, it may help to try and seek someone who shares the same strong values as you for whatever it is that matters the most to you
Something continually drawing you to a particular personality type, you could try and meet people in unusual situations or different environments/contexts instead to try and shake things up. If you're using an app, scrap your current profile and make a brand new one, hopefully that should give you a more varied choice of potential partners IMO
Some people are skeptical of personality tests and personality traits (I'm not, having witnessed most of these traits and their quirks firsthand). You could try taking a personality test to figure out what kind of people you'll get along with really well, helping you on your way to finding a partner.
