Dumb first time shopper

Hi! I placed an order on doorzo very recently, but then immediately realized that I'm going on a two week trip out of town in a few days (I'm stupid I know). This has me worried.

Will I need to sign the package? It's a relatively small and light package of only three items that only cost me 17 euro, so usually I would assume not, but I don't know in this situation.

Beyond that, what is the shipping time and is there a way to stall it out a bit? I would prefer it not to lie on my front porch for days.

The package hasn't arrived to the Japan warehouse yet, so I haven't selected a shipping method yet. Could I potentially keep it in the warehouse for a few days, or select a shipping method that would take longer?

I live in a populated area of western Europe, in a town right beside a major city for context.

Should I just try to cancel my order and re-do later... All my items are second hand so I feel bad for the seller...

Just, any insight into the time frame would be useful.

▲ 58 r/autism

I'm confused, am I autistic?

I (17) recently went to a psychiatrist for an ADHD diagnosis. I didn't get that, instead I came out with an autism diagnosis. I think?

As I am a minor, my mom was present. She isn't very... Nice about it. She always insisted there is no way I have ADHD and didn't even consider the option of autism, laughing at even the notion.

So when the psychiatrist broke the news to her and went through my test results, my mom asked this one question: "is my child an autist". The psychiatrist answered no. And this one interaction has been torturing me for a month now.

On one hand, my mom claims I'm not autistic because she asked and the doctor said no.

On the other hand, "autist" is a very different word from autistic, so the doctor may have misenterpteted her question to mean an extreme form of autism.

You see, both my parents and the doctor are non-native English speakers who are made to communicate in English. Which makes this interaction hard.

What makes this even more confusing is the doctor said she would send the papers by email, but still hasn't?

So basically, currently, it's my mother's word against mine. She says she asked and the doctor said no, I say that she phrased it in a certain way that implied something else and that I most likely do have autism. No diagnosis has been sent.

I suppose I wanted a second opinion. I've been confused by all this for so long I need someone else to look at it.

If it helps, my mom's native language is Ukrainian and my doctor's is Spanish. (Confusing ik lol)
