I’m an Adult—Should I Get Tested for ADHD or Autism?
I’m an Adult—Should I Get Tested for ADHD or Autism? explores why increasing numbers of adults are pursuing ADHD and autism evaluations later in life. The article explains how lifelong challenges, masking, executive functioning difficulties, and increased awareness through social media have led many adults to reconsider experiences they once attributed to personal shortcomings. It also discusses how ADHD, autism, anxiety, and trauma can overlap, the benefits and limitations of formal evaluations, workplace and educational accommodations, and how therapy can support adults before and after diagnosis. Prospering Minds Counseling provides neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed therapy for adults exploring ADHD, autism, anxiety, executive functioning, and emotional regulation.
