What was your score on this test?





Take the test here:
https://psychology-tools.com/test/autism-spectrum-quotient

Turns out a lot of people out there have quirks about them that they may not realize is due to falling on the spectrum. SO MANY non diagnosed in the highly functional spectrum.

If you've never felt "normal" or are prone to OCD, depression etc., this could be the type of explanation of your life experiences that could be a weight off your shoulders.

I was just curious where other posters lay on this.

There is no diagnosis if highly functional. Autism like traits vary on a continuum, but it's not a diagnosis unless it interferes with your life.

Scientists tend to score higher on these things because they tend to have high systematizing behavior, but it would be weird to call all scientists autistic.

Understanding that it is autism doesn't really help me out though. The fact that I was born with a disorder that hinders neurological connections do not make it better, or even more treatable(in my experience)

Could it be weight off my shoulders? Or could it just be trying to convince me changing myself would be harder because it's deeply ingrained?

I think diagnosing stuff and naming it can help some deal with it, but for me it's just trying to put the idea in my head that attempting to change is hopeless. I'd rather keep putting effort forth to curve my behaviors that make me unhappy instead of make an excuse for them and give up.

I have quite a few characteristics of Autism, but most of them can be explained by environmental factors. It wouldn't surprise me much if I was on the spectrum, but I don't believe I am.

Yeah this. At best a quiz like this serves to get you to ask questions about yourself, but there could be any number of reasons you score highly. Functional variations like autism and ADHD won't get diagnosed if they're not preventing you from functioning in society

Although I don't get why "Do you enjoy Chitchat" and "Are you good at Chitchat" are seperate questions.

"I love chitchat but I'm bad it!" seems like a small crossover pool.

If they had a middle option, I would have anseered them differently. I'm good at chitchat but I don't care to do it. I jusr do if someone starts a conversation with me.

Scores in the 33-50 range indicate significant Autistic traits (Autism).

Uh huh.

What do you mean by "functioning in society?"
Go ask drunks how that works.
If you can hold down a job and perform basic adult responsibilities, and maybe even get laid sometimes, you're "functioning" and whatever weird quirk you have doesn't really matter.

You can also enjoy chit chat and just not care how you come off. I think it's funny that I'm bad at it a lot of the time.

My fiance said that I could be a little autistic because she was curious if she was. I guess this confirms that.

Idk shit about autism, but for me I know I'm just socially awkward which I've been able to correct in most cases.
