Do people with traits typical of severe immaturity (stubbornness, escapism, childlike interests, too expressive, can’t handle the world not revolving around them) conflate their flaws with high functioning autism

Or does autism just lead to permanent immaturity

not really, being awful socially having weird interests doesn’t relate to being a manchild cause that’s just a personal choice in some people’s lives

most man children will do exponentially socially where autists usually do not

and a general understanding of the world differs greatly with them also

I would suggest getting it diagnosed if you are sure of the complicated symptoms, it's more likely you will be a man child that has issue with compromising without treatment.

Self diagnosing is never the way to go, as i thought i had autism myself and just ended up being schizotypal.

Yes
Autism isn’t real and is just an excuse
“Severe” autism is just retardation
 
Good point

As in like how us non NTs act outside as our understanding of the outside world if you get that

How we act socially and behave etc

Nope

Why would I need to spend money for someone to tell me what I ALREADY KNOW?

I am self diagnosed because for me it's so obvious
