I would sit down and have a serious talk with your mother. Looking up symptoms on autism aren't helpful because these websites don't diagnose you. If you let your mom know sincerely that you want to simply get tested, this can make progress. Autism is a very serious disease and if you are diagnosed, medication can make life a lot easier. Communication is key and you have to let your mom know that you're serious about this. Your mom loves you and wants the best for you. She must also be worried about you and talking to her is the best thing you can do.
