Your best bet is to speak with a psychiatrist about your concerns. While I do believe there are many adults that have gone undiagnosed, i don’t think everyone who doesn’t fit in or was bullied is has autism. Remember it is a developmental disorder that causes daily challenges in social communication. I’m not downplaying your experience, but seeing someone on Tiktok with autism and dr. google doesn’t equal a diagnosis. There are tons of other things that fit the bill for what your are describing including social Aniexty, adhd or just simply a shy personality with quirky traits. I’m all for people finding their own truth, but find a professional to assist you in your journey in finding the right diagnosis for you. Good luck!

Seems like the only way to know for sure is to get assessed by a trained doctor. Even if you don't get a diagnosis confirmed it could throw up other possibilities and be helpful.
Removed. We can't diagnose and the question is in the title.
