Untreated inattentive ADHD made me look like I had autism

EDIT: maybe important to note, this isn't an attack on people's with autism, one of my best friends even has autism and I can definitely see a lot of positive qualities that it brings

So obviously autism is much more than just the social/emotional aspect of it like repetitive behaviors and sensory issues for example which I didn't have.

What I did have was difficulty with social awareness, I often missed social cues and body language because of my difficulties with concentrating. I also had terrible brainfog which affected my ability to have conversations and a lot of social awkwardness which was also partly caused by untreated ADHD.

So in conversation I would often often not be mentally there, I would also have a pretty flat tone when speaking because I was either just bored or felt awkward.

It's actually insane looking back now how big of a difference medication has helped in this regard, when talking to people I notice way more body language, I don't have terrible brainfog so I can hold conversations much better and social awkwardness has reduced quite a lot.

Does anyone else have this experience?
