I too have never been diagnosed, but I do have my suspicions.

What are your feelings about Sonic?

Played it as a kid but ngl the game is bad. It wants you to go fast but at the same time throws as many spikes and enemies as possible to prevent that. Might be better if it were widescreen.

Have you been screened for diagnosis? Because if not, there's not a great way to tell you aren't autistic. Autism occurs in even the most functional people and masking is a skill many autistic people develop to fit in without realizing they are doing it.

I don't see a reason to go for a screening without evidence to indicate I might be autistic. It may cost money to get screened, and what's the point in getting a diagnosis even if I am autistic?

Your insurance might double in price, and some people/companies/countries might do profiling. Meaning that you will be limited if you ever want to relocate in the future.

If you love your life too much you could give it a shot.
