I've heard of that as well. There's a UK TV programme called The A Word about boy with autism, and in one episode his mother believes that he's suddenly developed a "normal" theory of mind, only to find out that it may be linked to his being ill.
Although I don't have a diagnosis myself I do struggle with executive functioning and much of my anxiety is tied into that. Being ill definitely relieves this because there are no expectations on me to get things done to a schedule.
