Is getting over excited by things and having to take frequent breaks from them something on the autism spectrum? (hexbear.net)

Like I've noticed normal people can say sit down and watch a whole movie, or play long stints of video games. Myself on the other hand, if something exciting happens or I get too stimulated, I need to take a break and walk away. Weird right? I noticed it more as I got older, when I was younger I'd normally just binge watch things or play games all afternoon. Today I can only do so much in short spurts, like an hour at a time, or else I get too worked up and stressed out.

Is this on the spectrum or maybe auhd?
