There can be some similarities between having High Functioning Autism as compared to having another condition, like ADHD, for example. For both conditions, there can be difficulties with paying attention, with executive functions (i.e. skills like initiating, organizing, and planning), with rigid thought patterns, with sensory issues, etc. Autistic-like characteristics oftentimes include any combination of those challenges, but they tend to also include some form of social impairment as well.
