A member asked:
Is it true that all people with autism have adhd (but not vice-versa)? i heard that from a chiropractic neurologist.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Interesting that those who never went to medical school use terms that suggest they have a similar (years long) training (not). Many kids with autism will have ADHD but it is not true that all are effected. It is also true that it is hard to separate out the features of autism that overlap with many of those in ADHD kids.
