Thank you for reading! There are therapists who aren’t educated enough to recognise the signs. Psychiatrists should be trained into diagnosing neuropsychological conditions. At least in my country, there is a limited number of psychiatrists who are qualified to do evaluations. If you see many autistic traits in yourself, you probably are on the spectrum. It’s up to you whether you wish to get it formally evaluated. You can just educate yourself about coping mechanisms, and it might be enough to understand yourself and your needs better. Take care!
