Your Aspie score: 140 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 55 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie

I would like to be professionally diagnosed but unfortunately i have lost my medical plan after dropping out of collage. it was just too much for me. while i did good in my computer and math classes i just could not keep up in english. schools just not my thing i guess. I like my work (fast food) because i get to see lost of people but my boss always gets mad at me for not smiling or putting my hand in my pocket/ twiddling my thumbs. Im a hard worker but i tend to forget long strings of instructions. I've never been good with people, up till high school i could never hold friends, in my very few relationships (all of which i was asked out), i just can figure out what to do, and ive been used for sex and money on a few occasions. In high school i made it my goal to be friends with everyone. I always feel like i have no friends, even though i have been told by many of my friends that i have many more friends than any of them. I have just recently gained control of my eating habits and have lost 80 pounds (i as now 220, and 6 foot 4). I have a really bad habit of researching random thing obsessively, then i have to tell every one i know about it. i always realize that im bugging some one just minutes too late. all of my attempts to change failed. The only time in my life i felt right was my only some what long term relationship (6 months) unfortunately she decided i acted to strangely, she said i needed to learn how to act in public and such. up until recently i just though i was different, while i had been diagnosed with ADD, depression, and bi-polar the doctors had never mentioned AS. then one day i stumbled upon the AS wiki page and the puzzle that is my life just fell together. it explained all the problems ive had. I just wish i had found out about this while younger, so i could have done better in school, and with people.

and for anyone that actually read that thank you, i just felt i need to get that out.

i hear it alot that someone diagnosed with ADD is actually an aspie, when i was young i had an ADD diagnosis, but they changed it to aspie because itwas very clear and obvious i was one.

What was funny was I told my friend (who is an aspie), that i thought I also had it last week; he told me he always thought I had it but didn't want to say anything.

well I have bad, good, and ok things to say. After another girl using me then dumping me I came close to killing my self shortly after my first post. But i ended up having the best weekend ever. I had so much fun at a very large get together with a couple thousand people attending. the mid line was i found a girl that was so compatible with me, i spent the weekend with her without getting too attached, but i accidentally said something to her parents and they told her it was not a good thing for her. To tell you the truth I cant really figure out what I said.

I was VERY close to an ADD diagnosis...but through all the doctors when I was little I wasn't aware of (I was little) they managed to figure out & diagnose my Aspergers.
