Abstract
The co-occurrence of ADHD and ASD presents a complex diagnostic challenge due to overlapping symptoms, potentially leading to one condition being treated while the other is neglected. They are widely recognized psychiatric conditions in children and adolescents, with a solid hereditary, neurological, and biochemical basis. Effective intervention strategies must consider the distinct needs of both conditions, requiring a flexible, multidisciplinary approach integrating medication, behavioral therapies, educational supports, and family involvement. Increased awareness and education are essential to dispel misconceptions and foster supportive environments. Social and emotional support is crucial for individuals navigating life with both ADHD and ASD, addressing challenges in forming relationships, and managing anxiety. Future efforts should focus on developing sophisticated diagnostic tools, personalized treatment plans, and advocating for those affected by these conditions to enhance overall well-being and opportunities.
