Crazy.

Here

Even layman Autism tests are pretty crazy accurate even when self administered, for those who score high.

If you score high, don't pay. You're on the spectrum. Like 97%.

    And just in case you are from Germany you should follow it up with this one:

    Am I German or Autistic?

    This test diagnosed me as 20% German (haben die Lack gesoffen?) and 40% Autistic - which I feel should also a bit higher for the overlap of some symptoms of ADHD and autism.

    Scheißtest. And it hasn't the obligatory humor markers that are required on humor on the internet by the Digitalhumorerkennungsvorschrift, so I'm not even sure if I should laugh or not.

    70% autistic, 20% German.

    I'm still disappointed at the guy that said he'd sue me and everyone else on the council I was on. It's been years and he never followed through on his threat. Why would someone lie like that? /s

    I've recently learned that when an experienced doctor administers those tests you also get bonus points for being overly pedantic. As in, if you feel the need to clarify every single question, get frustrated about the questions being too vague or get annoyed at the answer options not being specific enough, that will push you towards the diagnosis even before any sort of score is counted.

    Oh, and most people with a false negative on the test get there by assuming that everyone feels like this. "I'm not abnormally sensitive to any sort of material. Just velvet and styrofoam are the worst, but everyone hates those so it's normal"

    I've recently been reconnecting with my nephew, who is my son. I didn't have sex with my sister; my first ever girlfriend tricked me into getting her pregnant and my sister, herself sort of an adoptee, was looking to adopt at the time. I enjoy being able to describe him as "my nephew, the one who is my son" because likely there aren't a lot of people who can accurately say that and, well, it gets a reaction from anyone paying attention.

    Sorry, got off track, though it was relevant to the narrative. My sister, his mom, works in the field of psychology and has informed him that he is likely autistic. Though not by her, I've been told the same thing many times by many different people. Last weekend, he and I spent an hour or two playing a game and voice chatting. We both mentioned several things that others have identified as odd behavior that we think is just optimized thinking.

    One of my very early Lemmy posts (under a different account) was about how following patterns is a way to make sure you do things right. During the aforementioned gaming session he said "I can't function without my patterns."

    I'm genuinely not sure I'm autistic, but everyone around me seems to be convinced I am and I guess I see why.
