I was sent here by mel from another board for HSPs funhsps dot niceboard dot org.

These are the tests I've taken:
I scored 23 out of 25 on an HSP test (hsperson dot com/pages/test dot htm) and the test only needed 15. So I think I am an HSP.
I also took a test to determine my personality type (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) on mbticomplete dot com. It said I'm an INTP.
Then I took a AQ test at wired dot com. Scored a 33 while 80% of diagnosed autistics or related discorders scored 32+.

I questioned whether I was autistic a while ago. Then mel from the HSP board told me that I might be autistic. Last night I was having a sales reflection meeting with my employees. I told them that my psychotherapist said that I might be autistic. They were not surprised at all. They've questioned it before. They make playful jokes comparing me to Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. (they don't hurt by the way).

Its nice to know that I'm not alone.

These are my threads:

Welcome to Wrong Planet.

NT on this forum means neureotypical or anyone who is not on the autistic spectrum. Don't worry, it has nothing to do with the MB personality theory. I didn't know what NT meant when I was new to WP either.

Please help me figure this out.

I've talked to a few NT's and confirmed that they think different than me in a very specific way. But I haven't spoken to any Aspie/Autistics yet. So I'd like your input so we can figure this out.

When you're watching tv, and your train of thought goes off on a tangent, are you a) able to follow whats going on in the tv show or b) do you have to rewind it?

Please answer the poll question here.
