adhd or autism !

NAS81209

hi! so i know i dont have to put labels on stuff however it gives me a big sense of reassurance, but the other day i was slightly leaning towards thinking i had adhd but now i think it might be autism. i have been thinking its autism for quite a while though!

do you know any way i can figure out or be 100% sure its autism? i dont exactly qualify as an adult, i am a minor but i did take the raads-r test and got a score of severe signs of autism.

thank youu

ps does anyone also know how i can tell my parents about this? im scared that they wont exactly believe me or "we would have known earlier if it was" or something

thanks again :)

Parents

    you say autistic, that's it, it's not something you can detach from a person, either you are for life or you are not.

    You have to open yourself to a possibility that you won't get along with your parents

    if you're autistic, and your parents won't accept it, they will make your life really miserable with constant nagging, about things you don't do or do wrong in their eyes, while you do it like that for a reason ( e.g. your mental health), or because you're clueless how to do it, and they won't listen to your explanation

    how long could you endure it, if there is just that every time you see them or talk to them?

    since you give us no details to digest, you'll have to figure it out on your own, watch https://www.youtube.com/c/Autistamatic

    only you can decide if you are or not
