@@neurodivergentme I did this questionnaire yesterday after watching Jimmy Snows coming out video, scored 40. I declined the offer to chat with therapist, said then "At my age a diagnosis would do me no good or harm." Now I'm thinking being open about a diagnosis may benefit others who suffer social consequences, but I'm still scared. Now I'm curious about the scoring, several of your answer were different than mine, and some were opposite.

I am 66 female and recently got clarity of ASD, which almost completely explained my entire life to me. I am totally scared of telling anyone I know about ASD, all I can manage is to maybe say I am Neuro-divergent and leave it with that. So far I have not been "attacked" from telling anyone (like 3 people close to me), but I don't feel safe telling anyone else because of a lifetime of rejection, misjudged, bullied. I am glad I finally found out what the deal is with me, but it's also making me feel very sad for a "lost life". But I am studying every day and hoping to make progress within myself, regardless of going to a medical professional (which I don't completely trust). The AQ test is for me. I scored 44/50. I think I actually like myself the way I am, but it's almost impossible for me to have friends, but I am actually ok with that at this later time of my life. My grandchildren love me the way I am and maybe about 3 other people, maybe more IDK for sure. I am retired and widow so I don't have to deal with working and masking HARD and I don't have to worry about taking care of a man anymore, thank God. The problem now is that I still don't know how to deal with "mean people" so I had to quit going to my senior women's church group. I hardly ever go in public anymore due to distance and money and I just keep to myself which seems to work out best for me. I have to live in a very NT environment which keeps me triggered all the time so a lot of my energy goes to trying to cope to stay calm. My grandchildren and my creative activities are what keep me as okay as I think I can be. Im not really interested in meeting new people anymore. It's way too hard and stressful and scary. ❤️🙏

I so related with your comment. I am 65 and just recently started pursuing this. My daughter, who is a pediatric nurse and neuro diverse herself (ADHD) told me she thought I may be autistic. At first I was upset but then I started researching (which I am known for in our family!). I had no idea the differences between women and men on the spectrum and how underdiagnosed women are. I did take the AQ (along with several other tests) myself and scored a 42. All the other tests also scored me as probable for autism. And looking back over my family, I think my father was likely autistic and my younger brother may be as well. Now I need to decide if I will try for an official diagnosis. My husband feels it is not necessary to get one but then he isn't the one that has lived his life feeling like he didn't belong! I think an official diagnosis may be validating to me plus those who won't want to believe this might be more likely to if it is "official".

First off, your videos are great. I’m diagnosed as autistic, but I never score very highly on these type of tests. I got a 30 on this one which appears to be borderline. I’ve always felt like I’m not autistic enough to claim my diagnosis. I feel like I need a second opinion. The psychologist who diagnosed me is highly respected, but I just have those lingering doubts.

have you watched the video by Aspergers from the Inside on this AQ Test? He explains more about it and says that 20% of diagnosed autistic people score less than 32. If you score less than 20 then it's unlikely you're autistic. But you said you scored 30, that's not "low" at all, even thos most autistic people score higher.

I took this recently and scored 40, I had my fiancée take it to compare and she got 11. I’m not diagnosed, but I’ve thought I could possibly be autistic ever since my first year of college - someone in a communications class I was taking did a presentation on autism and SO much of it resonated with me, so it’s kind of something I’ve thought “well...maybe...it’s definitely a possibility...” for the past 12 years of my life and only just recently (the past maybe six-ish months) started reading more about and researching more about at my fiancée’s insistence. She’s really been my motivating factor in my own self-acceptance and been trying to convince me to get a diagnosis (but my insurance is garbage so...)
@neurodivergentme3 жыл бұрын
That's awesome that you have a partner that encourages your self discovery. I was incredibly fortunate to have most of my assessment covered by insurance. Knowing what I know now though, I would have happily saved and pay out of pocket. That's not to say that everyone needs to do that though! I wasn't able to accept it as truth until I heard a specialist tell me. I (and so many other missed autistic women) was gaslit to believe that I was just over dramatic and part of me really believed that maybe it is just that. When you've exhausted all other options and continue to struggle, who else is there to blame but yourself? That's where I was and the diagnosis really helped me accept myself wholeheartedly. Good luck friend! 💕

Scored a 35, diagnosed with ADHD in the first grade, my mother used that as an explanation for all my “quirks”, but I’ve always felt something was missing to explain me. I do believe I am a high-functioning, high-masking, adult female on the spectrum. I’m more social than my counterparts, but I believe that’s because people and sociology have been a special interest of mine because of how confusing yet important people are to me. That trait does make some people doubt I’d ever be on the spectrum, but my mask is so intact in social situations that I can even fool myself about myself. This has left me at times disconnected from my true self, feeling major imposter syndrome. Wondering how many can relate?

Scored 45 out of 50 and used the test as information for my neuropsychologist who diagnosesd ASD And ADHD with a bunch of subclinical but present presentations at borderline status. Cautions not to take on line tests as diagnostic but basis for recommendations for professional testing and diagnoses are usually made with certain score ranges. Many presentations may occur that as an individual are subtle enough but warrant attention. The cumulative evidence may, as was for me, was the basis for the diagnoses with the copies of self-testing scores only as reason for follow up professional diagnoses but only part of the picture and pointed out presentations I was either only partially aware of or not at all aware of but clinically significant. Admittedly professional diagnosis isn't the only path, that's a matter of individual choices and preferences. It sucks that professional results are expensive with or without insurance, and a second opinion may be reasonable but greater clarity and awareness have their benefits that should not be unnecessarily brushed off. This is a time when "it's all about me" makes sense. The intersection of self-testing can at least give you pause and a reasonable foundation for taking your next steps. The usefulness of "Self-Identified Autistic" shifts some of the clumsiness of "Self-Diagnosesd Autistic" away.

One of the few things where we differ is that I really lean more towards fiction. Specifically, sci-fi, high fantasy, urban fantasy and paranormal fiction. Mostly because of the fact that I've always felt like an outsider in this mundane world, so clearly I must have a better chance of fitting into one of these worlds where the threats and the rules make more sense. It's largely a form of escapism. Also, in fiction novels, the narrator tells you what people are thinking, or at least the main character, so I don't need to work out their intentions, they tell me what they are.

I've taken the test, and thought it was pretty lame in the questions it asked. It overstressed imagination among other things, and understressed difficulties in social perception, in executive function, and in sensory overloads. There was not a single question about either shutdowns or meltdowns. And I'm not even sure there was a question about stimming. The test comes out of the medical community, which is way behind the online autistic community in understanding autism.

It's a spectrum... Being good at imaging things and being bad at imaging things does not impact if you have autism. ASD is about how much SUPPORT you need and none of these question ask if you have trouble doing the dishes. You can score 100 on this test and not have ASD, because you can only have ASD if you need support. If you can figure out how to do the dishes, cook food, work and other stuff, you are no longer "disabled", but if they don't catch that your not a normal person and need the autism guide to living and not the normal guide to living, you are most likely going to run around until you crash one day, the entire system is broken.

I took it about a year ago and got a 42. I took it again a few days ago and got a 41. Maybe in another 10 years or so I'll be under the threshold. That's how statistics and trends work, right? /s

Ha, my number went up a bit from the first time I took it (first score 39).

I have a good imagination and my girl seems to also. I do not quite understand that point. Every one is different.

The test is definitely written in a way that supports stereotypical beliefs around autism... I wish that I would have included a bit about that in the video. As we know, autism is a spectrum and I have talked to many autistic individuals that have amazing imagination! 💕

Could you please send me the link to this test I would greatly appreciate it because I want to take it because I answered some of the questions or most of them are not in a good favor as far as how I do I can’t remember all of it right now but I really didn’t do so good I think I got a very high score number and all of it

"Fascination with numbers" is just too vague and broad.
