What made you pass this diagnosis ?

There was some part of me that doubted if I really had autism, so I wanted to get it checked out. Also, if I was diagnosed, maybe I could get some benefits or something like that.

I mean, you are certainly an adult, does anybldy ever picked you had some autistics traits ?

Well, I’m actually not an adult; I’m only 16. There are also, apparently, resources that autistic adolescents like myself would benefit from.
Has anyone ever picked on me because I displayed “autistic traits”? I don’t…think so, but I have definitely been ostracized because of it. Then again, I have been told that I am a horrible judge of character, so maybe I’m giving certain people too much of the benefit of the doubt.

Sorry if I sound rude

Don’t worry, you don’t.

got diagnosed for “adhd symptoms” aka my symptoms was too mild during my childhood, and really got stronger once I had another longterm issue during my teens.

I’m sorry. I hope you’re doing all right now.
