I have both AS and ADD and the ADD in me shows up mainly in my attention problems (I "space out" a lot) and from stuttering and stammering that result from me thinking things faster then I can verbalize those thoughts.
That's my experience exactly. And I've noticed that while I do get hyperfocused with certain interests of mine, my focus on one will run its course in a very short amount of time and I'll end up finding something else to tune into for a while, and so on. I take Ritalin to get through the workday, but even with that it's often hard for me to stay focused when I'm really not interested in something.
