Current Events > Do you fall on the Autism Spectrum at all?

(+) Yeah! (+)

26. So borderline. Not surprised. Don't get how being extroverted, liking people and social situations makes you less likely to be autistic, but whatever.

Aww i only got 34

Heh better luck next time kid

20 Feels good man

---

8
Seems only an extreme extrovert would get a 0.

---

26. Apparently aspergers lol.

tbh though some of those questions I wasnt entirely sure to answer, so the score is probably inflated. Im guessing most of the points came from the fact that I hate being around people. >_>

---

Not to hijack but I feel like this is also a something people should consider if they want a second opinion

This was my result, wht kind of doctor do I have to go to to get an official word on it because this

Is way too hard to ignore coming off TC's test

---

29... that's surprising!

---

Yeah, diagnosed by two different psychologists. It's apparently environmentally-based due to not going to school - or even being educated for that matter - for 5 years.

My 20s was basically spent learning fundamental socialization cues that I missed out on (in this context, socialization = social behavior and functions, not inherently meaning socializing in terms of communication).

Everyone does nowadays.

25.

I thought I would much higher on that list. Im surprised

Your score was 27 out of a possible 50.

Scores in the 26-32 range indicate some Autistic traits (Asperger's Syndrome).

Ayyy, just barely sliding in there. I think only a few people even know me intimately enough to even make a connection, because I can hide stuff like my sensitivity to some sounds very easily.

I score low on these, even though I feel like I have poor eye contact, hand gestures and small talk. I always thought that looking at someone too long was staring and just never knew. Same with body language such as moving hands when talking. It feels strange trying to do those things since I just never thought about it growing up.

---

20 i wish there was a neutral option because some of these things my answer depends more on the situation or i don't really have a strong opinion or i have no experience with it

I've been told all my life that I was weird so I'm not surprised >_>

---

i think the last time i did this, i got 8

but im good at telling if people are on the spectrum

---

36.

Meh. According to this test, introverted/ socially awkward = being autistic.

---

Im not even surprised by the poll results.

---

My therapist wants me to be tested anyhow

dang i got higher

This test made me realize how much I hate socialization apparently.

I will say I'm surprised I scored as high as I did bc there are definitely a few major areas that can be indicators that weren't even touched upon, or weren't done so with enough detail

---

17 for me

lower than i thought it would be tbh

Your score was 10 out of a possible 50.

Tag, I'm probably some kind of spectrum.
---

The other test



---

33???
i just dont know social cues very well and social situations terrify me. thats it, really.

---

i took the other test as well


i have flat affect and am quite anxious but the flat speech and anxiety portions are not even at half so i wonder greatly about how accurate this test is to me. also i do feel like i am sensitive to noise but when they asked things like if i don't like going to loud places like malls or amusement parks i had to answer no because despite the noise i don't mind going to places like that

---

19 out of a possible 50.

Few to no traits.

---

ive actually been trying to get tested for adhd for a while since ive had most of the symptoms since i was little and they arent going away and are actually affecting my schoolwork and a lot of these questions are very similar so i think that might be why a lot of these are so high

---

On the other test:



---

26 out of 50.

---

14. I think most of the qualities I have that would overlap with autists is related to social awkwardness and difficulty engaging with people I dont know. But I suspect that has less to do with autism spectrum and more to do with my upbringing.

Your score was 13 out of a possible 50.
Scores in the 0-25 range indicate few or no Autistic traits.

says i got assburger like in southpark

I got 25 but I hate these kind of surveys I never feel confident about any of my answers

---

6

---

yep

---

41. Well no fucking shit, I've known that since the 4th grade.

---

20, very likely do to my lack of sociability with random people causing me to say slightly disagree for the social situation parts :P

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.

They are tho...the fuckin nerds.

20...

21.

Some of these questions sound very stereotypical imo, as well as stuff that normal people would have nowadays. People would prefer libraries over parties because they have free internet, for example.

Then again, this was published in 2001.

---

31 on first test



I think because I do have a social phobia as told by my psychiatrist a couple years ago. I am always worried that I might be mugged or murdered. Just today while walking my dog a guy stopped on the side of the road and I thought he was going to shoot me when he went outside to check on his car. My heart was racing fast.
