| ESC, with a diagnosis. It fits, and I also read Angel_ryan's C/P of the CSC and there are some traits on there that fits me well. It makes complete sense that ESC was what I got as a result. I tried to the best of my ability to apply myself to answer the questions for when I was a teenager, and I be... |

| Not exactly sensitive in a way, but as a child and teenager, I hated pastel colors. Absolutely hated them. Still do to an extent, it's more muted these days. I'm not sure why I dislike pastel colors, but it just is. Not going to change that. There are certain colors that mesmerizes me well and bring... |

| As a kid I had frequent unregulated raw meltdowns, and as a teenager they gradually declined. I still have infrequent meltdowns, only when I am under extreme stress or unmitigated frustrations. |

| You are 17% neurotypical! You aren't that neurotypical. Social skills aren't your strong suit and you tend to have more skill in other areas, however, you may still enjoy socializing. It is likely that you are autistic. No surprises there. However, some questions doesn't apply to me when it comes t... |

| I was told high levels of anxiety can do that too. Lack of motivation from the beginning builds up anxiety over periods of time - for example, starting from childhood - will build up and up and cause much more loss of motivation in a lot of things, i.e. regressing. It's a vicious cycle with anxiety... |

| Yes. As usual, in my case, there is a weirder trait related to my walking speed: whenever I see someone walking in front of me or walking faster than me, I will accelerate my pace until I outpace the individual. Me too! +1 +1 I do know of someone who actually walks faster than me. My 79-years-old c... |

| Picked 5, but occasionally would slink into 6 (almost went with it). It is "disabling" enough for me, in a way. I have a cocktail of issues. Of course there are others that have it worse off than me - I am fortunate at this time to have a roof over my head, a room to stay in, having the opportunity ... |

| When I was evaluated for Asperger's, my GAF at the time was 41-50 (45). I was going through a difficult time then. I would say I range around 41-50 whenever I am down, to 51-60 all other times. It's entirely possible that I have gone as high as 61-70 but I doubt it myself, though. I'm still vague on... |
