Early access self reflection for adults
NeuroType gives adults a calmer way to reflect on attention, sensory needs, masking, recovery, and everyday friction. Your individual answers stay in your browser. The results are notes, not medical advice or a substitute for formal assessment.
Launch status
NeuroType is for adults using private self reflection. Some instruments remain unavailable while rights, source, and review checks are completed. Paid reports use aggregate summaries only after an explicit checkout action.
Start here
Move through the available reflections in a logical order and end with a private profile preview.
Use the ADHD Trait Reflection to organise examples around task initiation, attention, time, and follow through.
Start with sensory preferences if noise, light, textures, body signals, or busy places are the clearest pattern.
How NeuroType works
Pick what feels useful, answer in your own time, then leave with notes you can think about or bring to a qualified professional.
Start the guided route or pick one focused reflection.
Move through short prompts written for adults. You can pause and continue later in the same browser.
See readable patterns, domain breakdowns, and reflection points. The result is not a diagnosis.
Choose a reflection pathway
Original NeuroType tools can be completed today. CAT-Q is available with attribution. Restricted instruments stay closed until rights, source, and review checks are documented.
Not sure where to begin? This takes you through the available reflections in order, then helps you compare patterns around sensory needs, masking, attention, and recovery.
Use this when noise, light, texture, movement, body signals, or busy places seem to shape your day more than other people realise.
Use this if seeming fine, prepared, or socially fluent takes real effort inside. It looks at preparation, self monitoring, hidden reactions, and the recovery cost afterwards.
Use this to organise examples around focus, starting tasks, follow through, time, restlessness, impulsivity, and emotional regulation. It is not ASRS and is not diagnostic.
Use this if criticism, conflict, silence, or feeling rejected can hit hard or stay with you. It helps you reflect on sensitivity, repair, reassurance, and what helps you recover.
Use this to reflect on camouflaging: copying social behaviour, hiding discomfort, or blending in so other people may not see the effort. CAT-Q is shown with visible attribution and clear limits.

Why NeuroType exists
Many adults spend years wondering whether ADHD, autism, masking, sensory differences, or overlapping AuDHD traits explain parts of their lived experience. The questions can be practical and personal: why some environments feel draining, why tasks feel harder than they look, why social situations require so much preparation, or why old explanations no longer feel complete.
Online tests often handle that uncertainty badly. Some feel too casual. Others sound clinical without explaining their limits. Many give a number without helping a person understand what that number can and cannot mean.
NeuroType is being built to give adults a slower self reflection space. It does not replace formal assessment, and it does not tell a person what condition they do or do not have. Its purpose is to help users organise thoughts, notice patterns, and decide what they may want to discuss with a qualified professional.
Boundaries
Built with limits from the start
Each tool explains what it asks about and where its limits begin.
Individual answers stay in the browser. Sensitive reflection data should not move around unless a future flow asks clearly first.
The site avoids labels and does not pretend a result can settle a clinical question.
Restricted instruments stay closed until source, attribution, permission, review, and safety checks are documented.

Published guides that are complete enough for search. Higher risk AuDHD and score-meaning pages stay out of search until their review gates pass.
