Jung and some modern psychologists believe that hypersensitivity is its own thing independent from autism. Indeed they assign this trait to some highly intuitive and empathetic people because they pick up on cues that nobody else notices. The label is HSP or High Sensitivity. But having your senses cranked to eleven all the time, we aren’t equipped for that and if you don’t have elaborate coping mechanisms you will put yourself in many awkward situations. A lot of introverts are HSP.

A significant fraction of everyone acts thoughtlessly when they are exhausted or overwhelmed. I would encourage people, before self diagnosing [edit: or believing a clinical diagnosis - this field is more art than science] as Spectrum, to do a little more research and think about whether you believe you have the symptoms all the time or only when you’re overstimulated, and how bad you feel about your behavior afterward, when you have more clarity.
