Have you mentioned this to your medical provider
and therapist (if you have one)?

Speaking as someone who is diagnosed with schizophrenia in addition to autism, I can tell you that you're exeriencing classic delusional thinking. This is a common feature of several mental illnesses and usually gets worse without treatment. I strongly suggest sharing this with doctors or trusted adults if you are a minor and getting help for it. The more immediately people with delusions seek treatment, the better their prognosis is over the long run.

Cheers.

I agree with velociraptor that your sensations of spirits in your testicles could be the result of schizophrenia.

It could also be a symptom of some other problem that could also be serious.

In either case, you need to see a good doctor sooner rather than later. Regardless of whether or not your parents believe you.

An illustration: when I was working in the ER a young woman came in complaining there were mice running around in her belly. The doctor was ready to ship her off to the psychiatric hospital when a nurse decided to do a pregnancy test. Yep. She was pregnant.

If your parents refuse to bring you in, you may need to talk to a nurse at your school and ask if there is a therapist center that they can suggest for you. I am sorry that your parents don't take you seriously, it's good you felt comfortable to discuss it here. It's okay to ask for assistance.
