Just another potential aspect of my life.
Oct. 24th, 2011 07:25 pmI just took this: Asperger test
Okay, I know it's just an online 'quiz' and doesn't take the place of a good clinical evaluation. But it was *very* easy to answer the questions - there was minimal to no doubt as to my responses.
The website says this:
This test is designed for fun. It is not meant to test you for any disorder (real or imagined). You can't glean anything meaningful from this test without consulting with a mental health professional. It is not intended to make light of those who are suffering from autism or Aspergers syndrome. If you are worried about your mental health, see a professional.
It also says this in regards to scores:: 32 - 50 - Scores over 32 are generally taken to indicate Asperger's Syndrome or high-functioning autism, with more than 34 an "extreme" score.
I nailed a 34.
That explains a lot about the years of my life. This is something I'm going to bring up with my VA clinicians for further evaluation. Not sure what difference it will make, but it's something I'd really like to know about.
