These two neurotypes often clash, like opposing magnets in the brain. ADHD craves novelty; autism resists change.

You were doing everything right —until suddenly, life forced you to stop. The stopping wasn’t a choice. It was an ambush. One moment, life was full of lists and roles. The next, everything went silent. And in that unasked-for stillness came the haunting question: If I’m not accomplishing something, do I still matter? That’s the question Leisa Wallace faced in 2019, when a diagnosis of aggressive-onset multiple sclerosis unraveled not only her body but her entire sense of self.
