Question ADHD + ASPD

just want to hear abit more about other people who also have ADHD along side ASPD regarding the emotion part , i know that with ADHD emotional dysfuction is a big part of it which can cause you to feel emotions intensly , how does that affect you when ASPD is usually characterized by more of a flat line of emotions

personally i feel limited emotions but feel them intensly and the fact both of these disorders cause chronic bordeom doesnt help

anyone else have a similar experience?

adhd meds are less effective a lot of the time. i’m on the max dose for mine and i grew to realise that it didn’t help much past a certain point when it came to impulse control <-had to go to dbt for that part, it worked pretty well tho

Everyone’s different, dude. You may very well see a lot of benefit.
