If you are extremely articulate then your seen as extremely able. What can you do if you can’t mix with people and are highly sensitive person but seen as very able and full of attitude. Do you think this is not autistic?

Just to be clear I’m not articulate and there’s no tone in this post and I’m not full of attitude but I am highly sensitive person. Just wanted ask the question as I appear to people like I have an attitude problem when I’m just angry about some important things to me. I recognise I don’t think the same as anyone but I know that being a highly sensitive person is neurodivergent and that’s definitely me. I would like to have another assessment as I believe the people who assessed me where so lovely but not possibly aware of people like me who is autistic but female and I know I don’t appear autistic but I am and I should be given a nhs verified diagnosis instead of living with out the diagnosis and also because I didn’t go into the appointment with my memory and mental health state properly. But from everything I’ve read in regards to assessment on this post. I think that I’m getting the message that it’s highly likely I won’t be diagnosed as autistic even though I am. So that’s actually the truth of it and it’s not worth paying for an assessment to get told I’m not. Thanks for all your replies as they are all good and helpful but I’m sorry I didn’t answer any of the questions that’s been asked.
Happy new year when it comes!
A forum is a space where people can share knowledge, ask questions, and discuss ideas around a specific topic or interest. It allows members to learn from each other, exchange experiences, debate different viewpoints, and offer support, while also creating a searchable archive of information for future reference. Essentially, forums connect people and foster community around shared interests.
It might be worth reflecting on whether forums feel like a supportive space for you right now, especially if questions are being perceived as conflict.
I understand that comment is probably meant to be supportive, reassuring someone they don’t have to act in a certain way. The effect, though, can feel ironic if it triggers the sense of being told what to do.
I think we are talking at crossed purposes here. People can choose to do whatever they want.
The point is only to not to feel pressured into doing something you don't want by other people.
