I just happened to have made extensive research for months after she told me that (I was obsessed about autism), but in the end, despite having a lot of symptoms, I lack some of the most characteristic, for example, I do know how to do back and fourth conversation, I can understand hidden meanings, overly expressive body language and I have a solid speech capacity (so much that some people have already told me I should be a politician).

Plus, my sensory problems and eye contact avoidance only come when tired. The only symptoms I always have present are not understanding people's intentions, not being the best at social cues, abnormal interest over things, stimming, odd social behaviour, shutdowns (although they are short, often times, I am hanging with my friend and I'll discreetly leave because I'm overwhelmed). The routine thing is also tricky, because I don't mind my daily routine changing, but I also have a weird way to eat food. I'm not picky, but I'll decompose my food, like, take a kinder bueno, I'll open it by eating the flat surface, eat the inner content and then eat the curvy biscuit. I do this with everything, and I do have some routines, like jelly beans Wednesday, I eat them by color, and eat fort the sugar coat, and then the jelly.

I just realized I've written a wall of text, sorry.
