Answer 1

You are not autistic-- you're just simply shy-- which there is nothing wrong w/ that.

I used to be shy too.--back in HS. But not anymore-- you eventually grow out of it. Once you experience the real world.

Answer 2

Being shy is completely different than being autistic. If you were autistic, your pediatrician would have noticed that when you were about 2 or 3. Since you have not been diagnosed with it, and you are 15, you are not autistic. You should get into activities that force you to be more social. Join clubs, participate in sports. Get out there and make some friends!

Answer 3

you are not autistic. Autism is a very specific medical condition usually resulting in people incapable of communicating or interacting with the outside world. You are just young. It's okay.

Answer 4

Answer 5

If you have sense enough to ask the question and then go on to describe your self as shy than your not Autistic. We all go through periods of growth both emotional and physical Relax and don't rush it you'll get there soon enough!

Answer 6

You say you drive BMWs fast, so maybe you have some type of disorder. Have your guardians take you to a doctor for a checkup.

Answer 7
