I've never seen any autistic person say they're not blunt, and nt people can't take bluntness but most of the time I meet blunt people and I sometimes get defensive and take it to heart, does this mean I'm not autistic and I'm an NT in disguise?

My DOCTOR told me point blank I was not Autistic when I asked for the test.
I present myself and communicate "too well to be Autistic" he said..
But the diagnosis does explain why despite being well motivated, above average intelligence, essentially helpful & co-operative (at least at the start) & very skilled at what I do, I'm still skint and struggling with the worldly tasks in my sixties.
Although if I'd had my diagnosis when I was your age, I feel I'd have been able to make a much better fist of things. Certainly, two years post diagnosis my life quality is improving, simply because I know what stuff I should and should not attempt.
You can always go get yourself a second opinion from Aspergertestsite, if you are really worried that you have been misdiagnosed.
