Uhhh, autism is a developmental disorder as well, it's not a mental illness. It's often comorbid with mental illnesses, but so is ADHD.

The sentence structure is vague. “ADHD, like autism, is a developmental disorder” is how I read it

Yeah, I didn't see that at all, though I can see it after a few rereads. IDK, I really can't tell which they meant.

Yeah, I definitely phrased that poorly. I meant what you said, that they're both developmental disorders
