You do not have to choose a label before asking for help. Exhaustion, worry and difficulty concentrating can appear in different situations. More than one issue can be present, and a tracker cannot distinguish burnout, anxiety, ADHD, autism or a physical health condition.
Separate recent changes from longstanding experiences
Write down when things became difficult, what changed around that time and what daily life looked like before. If ADHD or autism is something you want to explore, bring earlier-life examples as well as recent difficulties. These are conversation notes, not a scoring system.
Bring questions rather than a verdict
You might ask: “Could sleep, stress, medicines or a health condition be involved?” or “Would an assessment be useful?” A qualified professional can consider your history and symptoms. Do not change medication based on a pattern in your records.
Start noticing without a diagnosis
No diagnosis is required to use AuDHD Companion. Record what feels relevant in a check-in or private journal, then look back at changes over time. A repeated association is a question to explore, not proof of a cause.
See the app before signing up, or start free. The app supports reflection; it does not diagnose or treat a condition.
When to ask for support
If what you are noticing is new, persistent, worsening or interfering with daily life, speak with a qualified health professional. You do not need to complete a week of tracking before asking for help. Bring any notes you already have.
