Hi
I think I may be autistic but I’m not sure
Please Help
Self-diagnosis is pretty tricky and a bit risky, since there are a lot of lookalike conditions that can be mistaken for autism, and a lot of neurodevelopmental disabilities (like autism or ADHD) require a certain battery of tests to figure out how your brain operates. (My own disabilities looked like autism, but a bunch of testing figured out it wasn’t autism, it was a combination of ADHD and NVLD.) That being said, if you think you’re autistic, you can check out How to Recognize Autism Symptoms in Yourself
to learn about the signs, and How to Tell Your Parents You Think You’re Autistic
for advice on talking to your parents about it
