So you had experience that's not related to interviewing with Asperger's or ADD. That's cool too.

I can certainly relate to coming off as weird or socially awkward or unintentionally rude, and it has affected my job interview performance. People diagnosed with ADD/Asperger's don't really have a monopoly on that.

Plenty of neurodiverse people don't have a formal diagnosis BTW

Autistic people are not awkward in the way that you are awkward, unless you're an undiagnosed autistic.

This was what I meant although my comment was socially awkward! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This was a totally unnecessary comment.
