I scored 32 twice. Once when I took the test back in March, and again just this past week when my friends all took it and shared their scores. It did not go well for them.

This is neat but I don't think I need to take a test to know if I have autism, I already have multiple EVE online accounts.

Not sure how an internet test can tell whether or not I'm circumcized.

I have CPTSD. I've been in therapy consistently for about eight or nine years now, and cumulatively about 12. I've had three different therapists recommend me to different locations to get tested for autism. Every time, I get put on a waiting list because autism has become the new internet sensation, and all the places I've been recommended to are overbooked for months on end.

On top of that, it is important to prioritize autism testing for younger people and children, because these are the people who are going to need the most help in their life to come. I'm closer to 50 than I am to 40 so it is not so much a priority that I get tested.

So to close out: I've had a few therapists indicate they believe I'm autistic in some ways, but there's little to nothing to be done about it at this point in my life. Please, if you believe you have this, do reach out and try and get legitimate testing done. You deserve a better life.

16, well below the minimum 25 threshold. Not a surprise, among other things I've got dyscalculia and been clinically depressed since age 9 (42 in November) so I spent a lot of time in my formative years with various specialists and mental health pros. Even in the 90s someone along the way would've spotted something and recommended referrals.

I got a 37. My husband got diagnosed with autism as an adult and being in a relationship with him for nearly 20 years has encouraged some latent traits to come out. Then again, I've always had some issues with textiles and I fixate on things frequently and my dad and sister have ADHD so :shrug:

I was diagnosed as "yes" a few years ago. Was diagnosed as "no" a few decades before that. I still reckon SzPD would be a much better diagnosis.

I got a 63, but I also have bipolar 2 disorder, social anxiety, and complex post-traumatic stress disorder so that might be skewing things.

Like I've been around therapists and psychologists since I was in my teens, and professionals have never even hinted at it. Not sure if this online test is the best way to diagnose, but what do I know? :shrug:

i've taken a ton of other autism tests and always ended up right on the borderline before Autistic but for some reason this quiz really slammed me with my autism.

I honestly think I just have social anxiety. I've already been diagnosed with generalized anxiety, at any rate.

I usually score a bit over 100 but I've been so high-masking my whole life that I dunno what's true anymore.

Anyway, being autistic and misdiagnosed for 30+ years can really gently caress you up.

The lack of a "sometimes" or "rarely" was kinda killing me. Tongue depressors in my mouth irrationally make my skin crawl and that one exception was making the sensory questions tough.

You should have answered "Never" unless you like doing it.

There's a few weirdly worded questions in there considering the target audience.

Oh. I made it to 134. I sort of figured there would be more scores in the higher ranges here. I always took myself as more of the ADHD type, but whelp.

e: yep. My sister's a teacher and says I'm not autistic, just introverted, lol
