What Learning Disabilities I Feel I Have?

OK, so I have been diagnosed with Autism when I was 2. But I feel I have other behaviour or learning difficulties such as ADHD or ADD and a mild form of dyspraxia.

ADHD: Sometimes when I'm at school or in a classroom, I just tend to shut down. But the teacher and TAs (Teaching Assistants) don't really tell me off because they don't see me in my own world (which I'm always in) When I'm alone, I say random stuff, talk to myself even in my own sleep and there are times where I don't want to sleep or can't sleep (not that I have insomnia)

Dyspraxia (but a mild form): So I've just learned how to tie my hair, but I can only do it in a ponytail or pigtails. Sometimes a bun, but it's not a proper bun. Shoelaces, for me, are a bit of a struggle, I just tuck them in the shoe. Haha. I try and practise, but not a lot because I don't feel as that it's a life skill. I just don't think it's important for girls and women. But probably for boys and men it is. Just my opinion. With hair, you're just twisting the bobble, but with shoelaces, it's different to me because it's the laces and tying them in a bow I find difficult.
