ok: a) take a test for adult autism b) talk to a psychiatrist / psychologist / therapist who has a background in working with autistic people c) don't believe assessments of random people online. for context, if it matters, I'm autistic. We're each a bundle of non-linear spectrum of characteristics, and autism has high comorbidity with ADHD. Happiness / depression is only related insofar as it's hard to be autistic in an allistic world and living a hard life can be depressing. Panic attacks have nothing to do with autism (unless as a side-effect of stress related from being autistic in an allistic world). Some of your things can be explained by autism, all of your things can be explained by other things.
