Could I be autistic?

Hi and welcome to the community. 

It's quite possible - I wouldn't have had a clue I might be autistic until 9 years ago.

Try this test to start - it's used in formal diagnosis:

Thanks, that, means a lot.

Thank you for those kind remarks. 

Hi, welcome to tge community!

What you described is common experience in autistic community,  however nobody here can confirm it, only a professional can do it. It's worth exploring. Maybe someone here can advise you a book about autism (I red one partially,  it was in german, this book was published only in Germany). You can also try some tests like AQ50, RAADS,  aspie quiz, read mind in the eyes test. Tge results may give you some insight. You can print the results and show them to GP ir therapist. 

You can stay in this forum also without the official diagnosis. This place is very special to me because it gives me sense of belonging. I wish you find support here too.

It's worth looking into it if you think you want to, read about others experiences -everyone is different so you won't have the same things as every thing you see, but see what resonates, research it more. There is a lot of info out there. And it's good to look at other things too, so you can check whether other things fit better as there can be cross over. And feel free to ask questions!
