"Symptoms Wheel"

​

The wheel depicted below may portray ADHD in a light that emphasizes the "negative" impacts. It tends to overlook the uniqueness of ADHD, where many autistic individuals perceive their way of thinking as a significant asset in their lives due to their distinct cognitive processes. These individuals may not experience as many detrimental symptoms or have effectively managed them through learned coping strategies or medication management that helps reduce the intensity of individual symptoms.
