It's more helpful to think of it as one thing, your thing. Better than collecting diagnoses as some people are fond of doing. All these conditions overlap because the etiology overlaps.

Personally I was diagnosed with NDD-NOS, basically the same as what you're describing, with the understanding that it most closely matches ADHD-PI in terms of specific disorders.

I agree. One single diagnosis in which stuff fits is probably better than multiple seperate ones.

Interesting, I did not know about NDD-NOS. I'll have a read. Thanks.
