in Start here and say hello!
Heya, I'm NonbinaryCode. Online, I go by Camish (don't worry, it's not my real name). I'm autistic and I have ADHD-C. I have some muscle twitching of an unknown cause, but a neurologist and I are working on it.

I hope to meet some nice people here!

    @Biblioklept Thanks! The "C" stands for Combined. It means I have characteristics of what was considered ADHD and ADD in the past. I'm in the USA and I don't know if it's different elsewhere.

    I believe the use of ADHD-C, ADHD-PI (predominantly inattentive) and ADHD-PH (predominantly hyperactive-impulsive) are taken from the DSM-5 @NonbinaryCode @Biblioklept. 

    My understanding is that many professionals in the UK use the ICD instead. I'm not sure if they use the same terms or not :)
