Self-diagnosis: Self-diagnosis on this one is not likely to be helpful -- best to see a psychiatrist or psychologist for thorough evaluation. If you were autistic at 32, this would likely have impacted your relationships, work, and school and have been noticed before now. Introversion is not really a diagnosis, but more a temperamental style. It means you need some time away from others to replenish yourself.
