As an adult woman, in your financial situation i wouldnt persue an official diagnosis. It is a luxury for those adults who have the means. From what I recall you tend to have more pressing matters to deal with such as security/basic human needs, food shelter etc.
I've read your posts and I couldn't say either way, but I do know you struggle and that your experiences are real.
I agree with the suggestions to ask for a non official professional opinion, for free if possible. Perhaps you are on the broad autistic phenotype with bipolar, that still makes you one of us in my mind.
