What are the signs of it? Like people have told me I act like one but I've never been tested for it and I definitely can tell my mind doesn't function normally. I have poor impulse control, whenever plans go badly I can't shake the feeling of unease, I like to do the same things day after day and it really can ruin an entire day for me if I can't do them at least for a little while and I have a lot of trouble understanding people.

The most common symptom is lack of eye contact, but it's also heavily defined by difficulty understanding social cues.

However, that last bit is also heavily associated with autism as well. Having a routine, and not knowing what to do with yourself when the routine gets disrupted. If you're legit curious about it you should try and get a diagnosis

Other common signs are being OCD or being extremely fidgety. Like I can't keep my hands still. Video games help with that somewhat, though during cutscenes I'm constantly pressing buttons in my own rhythmic pattern.

I first thought I might be autistic around middle school and in the years since then I've come to understand what being autistic is to me much more. I was not tested until my twenties.

Rayman, although some people think it's named after the character from Urusei Yatsura.
