I checked all too because my autism is such that I can't pull apart the symptoms.
Yes exactly, they seem so intertwined.

What impairs me the most is that I can't seem to be able to have conversations with people on a "professional" level. I can't really adapt to professional situations. I'm always on the same "level," which is pretty casual, rather than professional.
This is probably why I was never promoted on my job, even though I know my job backwards and forwards.
I almost have the opposite problem. I'm too formal/professional and can't seem to shut it off as appropriate. Those around me seem to master more casual and cool speak while remaining appropriate, but I can't find that line and so I mess it up when I try to tone it down.
