I scored 125. I received a formal diagnosis about a month and a half ago of asd level 1. I couldn't be more relieved. After a lifetime of knowing I'm different I finally have an answer as to why.

In conversations, do you use small sounds that others don't seem to use? 146. Is it hard for you to see why some things upset people so much? 147. Is your sense of humor different from mainstream or considered odd?

141/150. Of course, there were the A and B split questions to take into account, which I did not do. Maybe next run through. The result was kind of in keeping from results from Cambriidge Uni Autism tests that I have done over the last decade on and off. I have not been tested by an approved psychologist but have had discussions. Of my descendents over three generations (not including myself), there are 40% ASD L1s. These people excel at medicine or IT. Of the remaining 60%, most are ADHD, again formally assessed. The common thread I have observed over the years has been early identification and tailored instruction for the individual to get the best out of life/living with others and staying the course over the long haul.

Thank you, Mark for this!! Your videos do help my wife and me. 121 definite yes and a few that I would answer sometimes to. 82.3% Self diagnosed after seeing some of my traits in a character on a show from about 10 years ago called "Parenthood". First in Max then in the character played by Ray Romano. Did a lot of on-line tests and determined by my wife and kids that I am on the spectrum when it was still called Aspergers. Above average IQ of 137 last time tested but when I tried for a formal diag, was told anxiety and depression was all that was wrong with me and they dismissed me from the office, "our services are no longer needed for you". Boy, did I take that hard.

98, but I always NA questions that involve the word "others." There are no 'others' in my life so there are a quite a few questions (e. g., #21-25 and some in the 100-130 range) that imply some kind of social life and interaction with others that I just don't have. For example, one question asks, "Do you notices details that others don't?" Not sure how to answer these types of questions since I don't spend any time with others and, thus, lack a reference point. It'd be like asking me, "When you go skydiving, do you prefer to pull the rip cord with your right or left hand?" Ummm...I don't skydive so I'd have no way of knowing. Thanks very much for your effort and the videos and the resource links!

I scored 132 out of 147 - 89.8%. I was diagnosed 2.5 years ago.

Thanks Mark, this is the most comprehensive list I've seen.

I got 92 out of 147. I wish I could get an actual diagnosis at my age (I'm 42 years old, socially frustrated, academically gifted).

Went through this with my husband tonight. His score was 63 (yes). *Our son (19) was diagnosed at end August with SPCC (Social Pragmatic Communication Disorder) * I am sure my husband is in line with that also.

This was a great set of questions. I got 78. At least it gives me something to work with.

I scored 125, at 65, in retrospect my life makes more sense

I hear you just fine.

Very interesting, thank you for sharing. 138 yeses. Self diagnosed about 10 years ago, have only told my husband, not that it came as a surprise 😅.

Yes to the first 30 so far...

I scored 118/147. I am self-diagnosed as of 2023, but this does make me want to look more into formal. But the cost and accessibility to them is troubling. But having a formal diagnosis would help me talk to my siblings about this being a genetic thing. I strongly suspect my 5 year old nephew is AuDHD. It’s hard not knowing how to talk to them about this.

Thank you for this.......❤

Scored 109 but wasn't certain how to answer some questions.

What about frequent job change? Ability to get a lot done in less time than others? or get a job done in 1/6 the time?

100%

I scored myself at 105, my wife scored me at 110.

Note for myself: I've got 85 out of the first 100.

👍

97/147 = 66%

Hi Mark, Which questionnaire is this?

I scored 117. Where would I go to get a proper diagnosis? I read that adults don't get diagnosed with autism by a professional. I would love to get a diagnosis, it would answer alot of my questions.

Where is the key for results once we have the number??Thanks.

Some of these symptoms sound like ADHD. I have ADD. I’m certain my husband is ASD but I feel frightened to tell him.,

Am 70 female. After researching asd because we highly suspect gr daughter is affected I am almost positive my mother and grandfather was on spectrum. My mother had very high IQ but would have answered yes to almost all of your questions. I as well as my 3 are adhd as well as 6 gr children. How connected is asd & adhd genetically Also the mother of the granddaughter has wondered if she also (besides adhd) might be on the spectrum

105 ….. perhaps on the cusp ?

I scored a 122. I score very high on all autism tests but any time I hear someone speak about experiences the tests dont cover I cannot relate at all. Its almost like I only have "test autism" it's very confusing.

So far, I’m 65 out of 75

Scored 102 -147, but there's a few more I could add that are not there, is that low? I can't deal with percentages (or math in any way actually)

130/147

41. But, some of the yeses are the things my (ADD) wife thinks why I may be ASD. She insists that I need a routine and get “overwhelmed” if it changes. I’ve always have looked at it is yes, I fall into routines, but I don’t get “overwhelmed” per se. I think I try to understand better why circumstances are changing, maybe to develop that picture in my mind dunno, but she interprets my questions as the situation being overwhelming, I think.

I do like setting traps in video games ;-)

Hmmmm, only 44 yes's for me... I may be the neurotypical of the relationship, lol

118/147 Edit: Make that 119

142 is that worded correctly?

Uhhhmm, I wish I got these kind of scores in school!😂 138/147🤔 well, I think maybe I should finally consider a diagnosis??
