Neurology testing: Some of symptoms that you described go with adhd. Including lack of attention, sleeping issue, not able to socialize. But the fact that you faint makes me question if you have underlying seizure disorder. I think it's appropriate for you to see a neurologist to check for seizures and if needed start medications for adhd.

It sounds like : You're worried that you may have ASD 1 (formerly Asperger syndrome) or depression. Please ask your parents to take you to your pediatrician to talk about your symptom timeline ; severity; i.e., the impact on your daily functioning. Your doctor can then refer you to the appropriate specialist for evaluation ; treatment. Don't worry, act! take care of yourself.
