Honestly I’m not the best person to ask bc my experience is verrryy specific & messed up , so I couldn’t tell . However I feel like autism is just a part of why I am so it’s very hard to separate thst from my personality, I have no idea basically. But there are other autistic people on here who could give their opinions as well. But autism is also known for compulsion issues& struggles w compulsive actions. So it’s definitely possible. I have struggled w these issues moreso in personal relationships . But maybe it’s deeper than I even realize 
sorry if this was a confusing answer LMAO my brain is so chaotic

Fr I’ve been very protective of my identity as an autistic person ever since I found out bc it’s been the answer to why I am me. Why I am the way I am. I love autism. It’s hard sometimes, but I also have talents bc of it & I do consider myself intelligent also bc of the way my brain works. It’s a blessing and a curse at times LMAO

I do understand what you’re saying lol you explained it well even if it didn’t seem like it! My therapist once told me that everyone I look up to (The ultra successful) are all people who have underlying conditions such as Asperger’s, bipolar, OCD ect.
I believe it!
