ESPECIALLY if it’s behavioral.... that’s why so many kids with bad behavior get WORSE because people dont want to label a child and they treat the symptoms and those meds make their actions a lot worse... it may not matter to everyone. But it certainly matters to me. i think i should at least have an option to know?

People who deal with behavior from people in the narcissism/psychopathy spectrum for a long time often show behavior that is similar to behavior from people who have something that is called ASD, this may or may not explain the behavior of people who have behavior that matches with ASD in some way.
A person getting a label ASD may cause a person to think they have disabilities they don't really have, this can hold a person back in life. So a person might think "I can't do this because I have ASD, or I do it that way because I have ASD" instead of understanding the cause behind the behavior regardless if an ASD label matches well or not.
ASD is probable one of the most misdiagnosed diagnoses, meaning a lot of people who get this diagnose simply need some time to recover from difficult circumstances and need some support with problems they encounter. Getting an ASD diagnose may cause them to give up dreams or wishes, thinking that they can't do it because they have ASD, while in reality there isn't really something that make them not being able to do that.
