Hi! Thank you for responding! He loves gaming which we try to limit but it’s so hard! He also loves Chess! He struggles with sports like basketball etc

Chess is fun! I was in chess club in middle school because my favorite teacher led it 😊 I like playing basketball, but I'm not sure how good at it I am, haha! The thing about video games is that they are very mentally stimulating for me. I never had much of an imagination when I was younger, and when I first discovered them, it was like I FINALLY had found something that could keep up with the thoughts in my head and that I could interactively engage in. I'm a die-hard Sonic fan :)

I'm autistic with combined type ADHD, too! :) While I've never had any trouble making friends, I have always been "different." I don't always catch on to social cues and I cannot read between the lines to save my life! I used to be very rigid in my thinking and behaviors, which I think may have aggravated others. Over the years, I've learned to let go and go with the flow. It certainly did not happen overnight, but it sure makes life easier once you get there 😊 What are some of his interests? I've always been a gamer.
