About OddlyWired

OddlyWired is a free resource hub for AuDHD adults — people who are Autistic, have ADHD, or experience both. It exists to give you clear, honest information about how neurodivergent brains work, without the clinical jargon, the inspiration-poster framing, or the assumption that you need to be fixed.

What you'll find here

Guides

Plain-language explainers on ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, masking, PDA, monotropism, and more.

Tools

Curated lists of apps, planners, and resources that actually work for neurodivergent people.

Assessment

A free self-reflection tool to help you explore your own patterns — processed entirely on your device.

How we approach this

  • Visitor-focused, not clinical — written for you, not about you as a patient
  • No ads, ever — flashing banners are terrible for neurodivergent brains
  • Neurodiversity-affirming — we don't treat ADHD or Autism as deficits to overcome
  • Community language — we use the words the community uses, not just diagnostic manuals
  • Honest about limits — we're not a substitute for professional support

About the assessment

The self-assessment draws from validated frameworks including the ASRS (ADHD), RAADS-R (Autism), CAT-Q (masking), Monotropism Questionnaire, and EDA-QA (PDA) — all adapted using community language that captures internal experience rather than just external behaviour. It includes a masking modifier: if you score highly on masking, the tool adjusts thresholds downward, because high-maskers often underreport their own traits.

It is a self-reflection tool only. It does not provide a diagnosis and does not establish a clinical relationship. Nothing you enter is stored or transmitted — everything runs on your device, and there's no email, signup, or account required.
