My son has recently been diagnosed with ADHD however has a lot of autistic traits. I know these all overlap and coexist like you said. I believe autism should have been looked at more carefully with him as opposed to the one diagnosis and out the door. He also shows a lot of signs of ODD, I had my suspicions but not once mentioned to me during diagnosis of ADHD, my suspicions were confirmed in his formal diagnosis letter!! I hadn’t heard of RMD before either, my son is a restless sleeper and wakes up in the night, I invested in a weighted blanket for him and the difference it made to him sleeping was almost instant!! XxTheres probably a lot of people out there that have “one” diagnosis, say, autism, but others have been missed. Lots of conditions that fall under that nd umbrella have a high tendency to coexist alongside other conditions. Adhd and epilepsy is another one of the top of my head!
I’m glad what I type helps, I tend to type very quick online and cba with grammar and spelling as I spend my life doing that at work with a fine tooth comb. I also tend to have had a gin or two in the evenings when I’m lurkingglad I am still semi coherent

OMG I’m dying at Bragatha Christie!!!Tiny children, especially one who is 1, do not argue about tap ends, Bragatha Christie!!!
The "Showbiz" section of the Scum thoughJust did the biggest eyeroll I think it’s got stuck in my brain
It the car did breakdown thsts the quickest KarmaSo are we thinking a Gretel I’m so relatable rant about how she went out to get the boys McDonald’s as a treat as they haven’t yet unpacked, and the car only went and broke down and as sh*t is the only thing that she finds she can relate to the sheep with maybe she ate her McFlurry too fast got brain freeze and then became lactose intolerant so shat herself in the car while waiting for the AA man to come save her?
so glad it worked! I’m a massive advocate of weighted blankets! Forever recommending them for adhd children before going right to melatonin if they are having sleep problems. I’m partial to one myself!My son has recently been diagnosed with ADHD however has a lot of autistic traits. I know these all overlap and coexist like you said.

It’s been a god send for him. And for me!! No more waking up 4 times a night!! He always goes to sleep ok once I’ve battled to get him into bed, it was the waking in the night that done me!!

Looks like someone painted her in the style of the giant rabbit monstrosity she did for poor Ronnie
This comment was put on her pinned grid post, and it was around the time that we got the McFlurry picturesIt the car did breakdown thsts the quickest Karma![]()
Loads of bots on show tonightI’ve not been pulling my weight with the bot reporting this week but I just managed to get some done.
Sorry don’t want to hijack the post or derail the thread! But my partner had adhd and ASD and has to take a sleeping tablet, we need to possibly look at switching the sleeping med as it sedates him too much - wouod it be worth trying a weighted blanket (if he would even try itso glad it worked!

Think it was said she was in the Audi Q8?@Longtimelurker xoxox did you notice if she was in her Range Rover or in an Audi?
Well there’s all this talk of weighted ones! Maybe that’ll help! Personally I use a coverless one! I’ve not punched myself…. Yet!!Nothing like a bit of pillow talk,but as you are an expert,any tips on how I stop punching myself in the face when I pull my cover up during the night?
These are the sort of questions that Mrs H could answer,I'm sure she's missed a trick.
Rob followed Gemma back the day after Stacey's wedding so if he didn't follow cling on soph by then, he never willSomeone suggested spouseif thatwhich makes sense .
Speaking of sauce, there was a Heinz advert on earlier which sounded like Rob Beckett on the voiceover. Has he followed you back yet Soph?
