Nervous for Eval out of fear that I have been faking illnesses

Hey all! So I (F22) have had moderate depression and anxiety for about 8 years. I don’t have many childhood memories. But of the ones that I’ve started to recover, I can see some earlier instances/ behaviors of anxiety so far (I’m also leaving out some other childhood traumas ofc). Anyways, recently I’ve looked into getting a referral for a complete pysch eval. I really have no clue what my underlying illnesses could be. I’ve ranged it anywhere from ADHD, autism, or BPD, I really have absolutely no clue. My image of self is very blurry and I really have no clue how I am perceived by others. So, for this psych eval, I’m most worried about going in for the long appointment and being told at the end that nothing is wrong and I’m normal, implying that I’ve just been performing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or some of my other odd behaviors. I would assume this is common but I don’t know. Would love to know if others have had similar feelings?
