As we all know, autism is pretty common amongst Atlas posters. I don't have autism, but I do have ADD, and I want to see how common ADD is on Atlas.

No.....it definitely seems autism spectrum disorders are more common here than ADD.  One possible reason is that most posters here likely did fine in school grades-wise, and it seems that for an ADD diagnosis, that usually isn't the case (though I'm not sure if this is true for you, RR1997), whereas with autism, not so much.

I was a straight A student during high school (GPA above 4.0/4.0 when weighted) and I (obviously) have ADD. Although ADD was/is still a huge obstacle, it's gotten a lot better. I'm still disorganized and lack foucs.

As to the first bolded comment - Uh,  yes, we have those!

As to the last, uh, cute name, but no, we don't hate dead0man.  Your posts do find their way to the "Worst Posts of the Old Atlas" thread, and quite often, but there's no hate.

I've heard differently from the people not fooled by him, but to each their own.

I had a post taken down for suggesting the same thing. You're right though! I have ADHD but for everyone who has it they diagnose 5 people who don't have it.  There are many extremists on here with autism based in the unhuman obsession with numbers and jack of reasoning to explain the shades of gray behind them.  Their responses to this will only prove me right.
