Know what having autism often gives you? Severe social anxiety. Particularly if you got punished for outbursts... or suffered social consequences and ostracization for your "off" behavior, especially for romantic relationships... I think a lot of the classification and supposed distinctions, as they currently stand, in apparent neurodivergence and dysfunction are not inherently useful, because neurobiology is so plastic and variable. The distinctions between ADHD and ASD are quite inherently fraught IMO.
