Online autism "test"

I scored a 28, which is "above average", so considerably nearer to Asperger's than it is considered to be "normal". Which, to be honest, seems about right to me. If nothing else, it might make you think...

I got 9. What's the opposite of autistic?

I scored 39.

As a child, I cried continually for my first year, used to rock back and forth for hours, and regularly bang my head against the wall. Didn't walk or talk until I was nearly 3, and an education psychologist told my parents that I would probably never be able to hold down a proper job. By the age of 7, my teachers had given up on trying to teach me how to read - but then my Dad taught me in just 2 intensive weeks.

It took many years, but I'm now able to function quite well in social situations, even though they can be emotionally draining for me.

The upside is that given a subject that interests me, I can be quite obsessive in becoming adept at that subject. With computers, that obsession can pay off rather well :-)
