How much do you guys struggle with eye contact?
I read that it’s common with ADHD. so I’m just wondering how much y’all struggle with it?
I’m diagnosed with ASD, and might be getting an ADHD diagnosis in a few weeks. But I’m unsure if I have ASD. My support worker said she doesn’t see much ASD in me, but my psychologist and a couple of psychiatrists have said i am ASD.
Anyway, how much do y’all struggle with eye contact? I struggle with it with new people, but sometimes, after some time, I am able to look at them (not in the eye usually - I look at their nose or chin or whatever). Before some time has passed, I look at the floor or whatever. Anyone else?
Undiagnosed but in the same boat - psychiatrist treats me for it.
Although for me it doesn’t matter if I know the person or not, looking into their eyes feel too intimate. But I could by looking at the bridge if their nose, because somehow the brain meat sees that as completely different and people don’t notice (unless they’re like, inches from my face but then we have other problems).
