Is anyone here on the Aspergers spectrum?

I've been wondering about this for a while. I've been tested a few times and they always say I don't have it, but multiple people have told me I probably do, including people in my own family. Usually after I tell them I don't have it, they tell me to get retested because the doctor probably fucked up and I definitely do.

Are there any surefire ways to tell this kind of thing? Are those tests just not accurate? I don't want it, but if I do have it I should probably be on some medication or something.

pic related it's my RDOS quiz

You're probably just an idiot. No snowflake for you.

It's pretty rare to find someone who would diagnose an adult with autism/asperger's unless they exhibited very severe symptoms.

Beyond a certain point, behaviors/"quirks" that someone with more mild symptoms might exhibit are often attributed to simply being quirky or eccentric.

I was diagnosed at 5, but it's pretty much a meme condition. Hell at a glance it's hard to differentiate me from your average normie.

yeah, i was diagnosed as an adult but i'm noticeably socially retarded as fuck. i've run out of stores making screeching noises because a dude pat me on the back.

about the tests though, there isn't really a surefire way
>>
>>24628432
There is no medication. But one thing there is is discrimmination. If you don't have any problems in life that you need help with, and don't feel any need to get a diagnosis, don't feel pressured into getting one.

You either have ass pie and are not being honest on the test, or you're neurotypical and you should stop wishing you're autistic because it's not a good thing.

I was diagnosed as an adult and I didn't have very severe symptoms. I do have a lot of associated disorders though, and I've gone through therapy for one of them.

>>24629568
I'm being totally honest on the test. There are a few traits I totally have but I think they only showed a little bit.

We can probably use this test to find normies

I was diagnosed with fragile-x syndrome as a child

I think it's more likely that the people who score above 90% neurotypical are more autistic than anyone else here.

How should I interpret this? Am I a normie??

Is this normie? would a normie have a more even distribution?
I think I'm not a total aspie, just a little eccentric, but I can fit in with normies for the most part

I've long suspected it.

I always get positive results (for sperg, anyway) on those online tests, but I'm skeptical of how much credence to lend them. At the same time, I did a fuckton of research last year after somebody pointed out that I might have it, and...yeah, my whole life is like a symptom checklist. It honestly makes sense of a LOT. My brain is just not normal.

I'm not sure whether to get diagnosed or just not give a fuck.

I have already been diagnosed with symptoms of aspergers by a psychiatrist, so this is more or less as I expected.

FUCK THEM DO NOT GET RETESTED.

YOU DO NOT WANT TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH OF A BULLET YOU DODGED BY NOT GETTING DIAGNOSED.

I got diagnosed as an adult and I have had nothing disadvantageous come of it. I've been able to get hired more readily, and have speshul snowflake privileges at my job. Biggest one being I get to work entirely from home.

The only downsides I can think of is I can't join the military I was already medically ineligible heh and I'm likely not eligible for certain other gov't jobs. But that doesn't really impact me.

I don't know. Wanting to kill people or free college or some shit like that. Just pointing out the only negatives I can think of. It's possible that new legislation comes down in the pike in the US that limits the rights of those with congenital mental disorders, but I don't see that happening any time soon.

I've probably got the sperg, but it's not official because I'm a functional and undiagnosed adult.
