i hate these questions so much. he said it a bit, but for so many of them the actual answer is sometimes yes and sometimes no.

[@ThaGr1m]

Weirdly enough, I think that's part of it. With some of these questions they clearly and precisely know what they're going for, so I assume they made it it slightly vague as a sort of sorting method, something along the line of an autistic person might anwser yes while another person might answer no because of the vagueness. Or trying to bait an autistic person in being a bit upset, as this is meant to be done under supervision

[@0Rookie0]

Also for things like "talk weird" I'm sure they mean like you talk in a way that is brought up and noticed by most people to being atypical. Not just a bit funny or lazy in speech. Some of these questions are very specific but by not elaborating you will get people questioning it because they "talk loud 'sometimes'". I doubt Ludwig has walked into a library and spoke to the librarian at full volume. I'm sure he's done the thing most people do where they are in a social setting with loud music or earplugs, and then changed settings and accidentally spoke louder than the situation calls for. It happens all the time and isn't the autistic trait I think they are looking for.

[@metalface_villain]

i was kind of annoyed that there weren't in between answers but over and under 16 instead, so all the time i had to go with just yes and no, even if the answer weren't 100% accurate xD i got 50 points but i think most of that was because of some answers that had to do more with being an introvert, like preferring to be on my own and not sharing with friends, not being comfortable with dates etc

An autistic person could score a 96, but so do many non-autistic people, as many traits that lots of autistic people have are very similar to the traits of non-autistic but introverted/socially awkward people. There's no reason to feel differently about yourself because you took this test - you're the same person you have always been. + the average score of people who are autistic is about 130, which is significantly higher than 96.

found out a couple days ago i was diagnosed with autism when i was 4 years old and was just... never told by my parents about it. or even my paras and counselors in school. ive suspected ive had autism since i was 15 (im 20 now), and my parents refused to acknowledge it. it took my older sister telling me to make me realize i could've known my whole life and had so many confusing problems and struggles finally make sense/get an explanation. it really sucks how people just avoid acknowledging autism because of the negative stigmas around it, because it creates so many issues and insecurities in autistic people whether they know they're autistic people or not. you can only really blame yourself for shit when you have no explanation for why certain barriers, struggles and traits are considered weird or wrong, or why you just can't process some things the same way as other people. im glad you were chill about everything you covered with autism today and the fact that you emphasized how important a diagnosis can be, and how a lot of people are overlooked and get diagnosed late because of the dismissal of the existence of autism in anyone deemed "normal" enough. im not a regular viewer, but you're cool ludwig, thank you for respecting the autustic rizz

There are close links between ADHD and autism (or rather they are characterized similarly but are distinct disorders), and anxiety is a common trait of both. I suppose that's a shortcoming of these online tests, since someone could easily self diagnose themselves with whichever they take first, but equally some people will just have both anyway and like you, may not realise at first because you were only tested for one.

[@abbyryan788]

I'm 24 and recently had a conversation with my sister who is 20 about it and she insisted i might be autistic and I should check it out. Honestly my response was very defensive because all the autistic people we knew growing up were non verbal and in my mind you couldn't be autistic unless you were non verbal and felt that most people weren't autistic, but just normal people who deal with normal everyday things. She was extremely patient with me and when I was calmed down she explained why she thought I might be, and that it was perfectly okay, and comforted me. I pushed it off until now and only took this test because one of my favorite KZbinrs did and scored a 130 on this RAADS-R test. I'm going to talk to a counselor this next 2 weeks plus a day from now, who might be able to send me to a psychologist. I'm so stressed about it.

As a kid I was officially tested for ADHD, written questions, focus tracking, talking about it, etc. I was told I did not have ADHD at the end of it and that was that. Moved on with my life. As an adult I was finally diagnosed by my therapist (double confirmed by my psychiatrist) that I actually have autism. And it's upsetting to me to think about the fact that they realized something was off about me as a kid, but basically just went, "No ADHD? WELP, I guess you're just a little weird."

[@lopsidedpotato]

In my completely unprofessional opinion I don't think he's autistic. Many of the questions he answered only when I was younger, and I believe those generally identify masked behaviors and behaviors/traits learned as you age and your pattern recognition allows you to fit in more. But the couple questions directed at that he easily answered as no never. Since the score is additive all of those partial answers are increasing his score when to me many of them seemed more like 'I'm better at x now or I do x more now' from his explanation. Especially with the very borderline score and all the non-autisticly answered social questions I'd be very surprised if we someday find out he is. And the fact that most autistic people who go undiagnosed are high masking and he basically was saying he doesn't mask at all

[@Arthera0]

thats why you cant selfdiagnose and need a professional that looks at a lot more than a questionaire

[@lopsidedpotato]

@@Arthera0 Disagree to an extent. Current research shows that self diagnosis is at least somewhat valid. Misdiagnosis occurs even with professional diagnosis, though at lower rates. A majority of people who self diagnose who are later evaluated do receive a diagnosis. And the biggest reason for me is high rates of under-diagnosis especially in groups such as women, minorities, and older individuals. According to UCLA ~80% of ASD women may be undiagnosed. I do agree that taking a single test without a professional is not indicative, but that is not representative of the self-diagnosis process in general. In my experience (late diagnosed), I took my first self assessment and scored 1 section above Lud. From that I said 'I might be autistic' and held that view for well over a year. During that time, I learned more about autism (including DSM criteria) and maybe a year after my first test I felt confident that I was, yet to anyone else I claimed to be 'maybe' autistic -- not diagnosed. Ended up diagnosed with both ADHD and ASD (also an incorrect self diagnosis of autism does very little harm as near 0 resources are available even for diagnosed individuals -- for self-diagnosed individuals the only possible negative I can think of is if you have another condition -- that can be treated -- and choose not to seek diagnosis due to your self diagnosis) Sources: McDonald TAM.

[@indyscott02]

I scored a 194, and was diagnosed with Autism at age 3. My differences from peers became more noticeable after I started daycare and preschool. While I recognize the growing awareness of autism and the trend towards self-diagnosis, it's important to consider the role of professional evaluation. Nervousness and anxiety are common human traits; however, for someone with autism, these feelings can be more intense and persistent, often compounded by the challenges of navigating unfamiliar situations. Professional diagnosis is crucial in distinguishing these everyday experiences from those that are symptomatic of autism. This ensures individuals receive the appropriate support and understanding they need.

[@lopsidedpotato]

While I agree to an extent, I think self diagnosis is valid. I remember hearing something like 90+% of self diagnosed people who seek diagnosis do end up diagnosed. That said no single test can tell you with certainty and a major factor in the diagnostic effectiveness of these test is your like actual responses on top of the answer you give -- like having problems with the black/white nature of many of the questions and/or the ambiguity (looking at you would you rather go to a party or a library -- WHO'S PARTY IS IT??

I'm autistic and so is my daughter. Not being diagnosed til I was a lot older led to may other mental shit like MDD, anxiety, and CPTSD. I learned to mask but but that affected me greatly as would anyone not allowed by society to be who they are. My daughter is already having a hard time in school with bullying and cognitive problems. Whether kids know about autism or not, she's still the weirdo. I do everything in my power to help her not go through the crap I went through, and im her biggest cheerleader to be herself, including EIPs in school and therapies (mental and social). She's the best, most loving kid ever, but I can feel her pain. She has never had a real friend, ever. She has a hard time remembering faces, names, and most things in general, so that doesn't help. She will need some kind of help for the rest of her life. On top of it all, her own father rejected her and took her trustfund money that was to go to her after I'm gone. She still loves him more than life itself. But if there was a pill to give her to cure the Autism and ADHD, I'd give it to her in a second. The Autism doesn't define her it just hinders her, and it will for the rest of her life. I'm glad that some people love that they or their child have Autism, but im not one of them. I already know the hurt and pain it causes and will continue to cause. NT are afraid of different and things they don't understand and always will be. And there will always be predators.

Did the same test too. I got 162 points. I am 34 now and was diagnoses with ADD about 3 years ago. I has helped me a lot because now I don't just feel utterly unfunctional when I don't remember something or I spend my time doing something absolutely useless instead of what I was supposed to do. I have been able to learn and pick up cues on my behaviour and make changes accordingly. I know for a fact that if I promise to do something but I don't get it in my email to constantly remind me I will not be doing that. Also when I have a lot of things to do I have to write them down an prioritise because otherwise I might do the useless more interesring stuff first.

As someone who has autism. I wouldn’t always say parents ignore it. It’s more because of the disorder itself I’d say it’s hard to diagnose especially in adults. There is a reason it’s called autism spectrum disorder. It’s because everyone is different and experiences autism differently.

[@swankshire6939]

I got a 149😂. I already assumed im autistic but damn some of the questions really hit. I hadn't thought about how my hundred random lists are autistic. Also i was being very literal until the question about being literal and it RUINED ME

[@yumyum9696]

10:40 actually I also remember something about that game and that move, I played it in middle school and I thought it was so cool.

[@ChrisBChips]

Bro is not autistic, he just got pushed into a lot of logical traps by chat

[@RockyAcademics]

playing along at home with already diagnosed autism. this quiz went hard🤣

[@SchizoSchnitzel]

it's funny how autism is seen as a bad thing when most creative geniuses are somewhere on the spectrum

[@rig177]

i got an 81, but im a spreadsheet guy.

[@vanthonvenus]

i remember taking this test pre-diagnosis and getting a 200+ score, now i’m a diagnosed autistic person :p

[@khusheepratapsingh1871]

You all have made a difference with your kind words. Thank you!

[@Rugby0nTop]

I might not have gotten 100% in school but I could get it on this

[@Sm1ttyFilms]

Just turned this video on. I bet he at least gets the minimum score for diagnosis

[@plumtus]

Fire edits🔥

[@tlud2493]

being told to take an autism test by your friend is wild

[@MimiUsagichan]

No

[@moresnqp]

no..??? and stanz would never mean it as an insult or smth

[@pizzastopstime]

That's actually the complete opposite. It's absolutely normal between bros

[@Joshs4stro]

grow up

[@Arthera0]

yeah that friend is dumb enough to think this test is proof of anything

[@fartsinsoupcans7014]

All this chat about the questions being bad, it shows how little we actually understand about autism and how diversely it can affect people and this test is somehow the best that we can do. Especially considering this is a legitimate diagnostic test

[@michaelb1697]

Ludwig is truly cocomelon for adult.

[@Daftcannon]

Plot twist maybe eating tacos wasn’t cheating on my diet but maybe going on a diet was cheating on the tacos

[@addisonmarriott6131]

Newly crowned ambassador is perfectly phrased

[@AnzaShadow]

I just finished the test and scored 176. It could change a little 'cause I feel like the answer options weren't specific enough.

[@moomin7777]

I'm diagnosed, and got the exact same score as Lud.

[@omegavillain7425]

Chat, I got a 146 on the test. Am I cooked?

[@alexispapa738]

i tried to take this quiz and the answers weren't what i needed

[@dbhDilemma]

Finally a high score he can achieve without the use of performance enhancing drugs or scamming

[@tyler4475]

I took the test and got a 63, 2 points below the minimum threshold they start to consider autism. I honestly don’t think I have it, or at least it’s very minor. I grew up always thinking I was kinda weird, and people led me to believe the same, but taking the test was actually very telling, especially on the sensory/motor skills and social side, where I scored most points. A lot of these things though were a lot worse when I was younger, and now that I’m an adult struggle with much less or not at all.

[@MonographicSingleheadedM-sp2wk]

I am autistic and I realized it after I turned like 20. I am 35 now.

[@criticaltipper7699]

I think I need to take this because I was like “yeah no way Ludwig is considered autistic” near the end of his test LMAO

[@fishermancy7719]

I did this and my score was double my friend’s score and he’s literally diagnosed 💀

[@Arthera0]

would explain why you are friends. i tend to gravitate towards other autistic people as well. however a simple test on the internet is far from sufficient

[@kbeasley447]

I got a 90, and when I was really young, I was diagnosed with Autism, but I was called higher functioning, since I was more socially aware than most autistic people

[@jblen]

I'm surprised that "true only now" gives more points for autistic behaviour than "true only when I was younger than 16". My understanding of autism diagnoses is that they basically test everything by your childhood, and will ask questions to a parent or someone close to you what you were like when you were younger. It also makes sense to me that a ND person would be more likely to show ND behaviour as a child only than as an adult only because as an adult you have more experience to be able to mask behaviour sufficiently and more awareness of when you should be masking.

[@Chickeenz]

I got diagnosed with adhd last fall as 28y/o.. my psychiatrist told me I probably had a minor case of autism as well but nothing that impacted my life bad. I scored 123 on this test. I see how he’d think I might have autism..

[@Eryn-Suchara]

There’s also a test this site recommends if you are high masking autistic, this is more common for women, but it often happens for anyone who is late diagnosed. I’d recommend taking it if you have a hard time answering these questions.

[@TrippyPanda18]

I don't need this test as it took my family 14 years to get me diagnosed with it as my school was dumb and didn't know what mental illness was

[@Olii___]

I decided to take the test for fun and I got 75 but I'm already diagnosed with autism. I only got 4 more points than Ludwig.

[@cookedgrass]

I also got 75, mostly cause I don't like a lot of textures on clothes, and also about a lot of the social questions but I would like to be social its just that I have no friends and don't really go anywhere, not that I want to though.

[@AlexSnufkin]

Got that 161 score Very strong evidence type beat

[@Guy48920]

The autism test was the first test i didnt fail

[@Micofaceprinter]

Do not need to watch this to know the answer.

[@Frost_blox]

142 and I just got diagnosed crazy

[@HistoryBloke]

That's an ok score, I got 197
