Thanks for sharing that. I wish that more people will take this test and related tests to it because the more I deal with Autism each day the more I am able to see the signs in others that I meet.

Do You Have Asperger's Syndrome? Health & Special Psychology

Interesting. Not sure how valid this is, reminds of of those IQ tests and stuff, but the only real surprise to ME is I didn't score higher. I wish my counselor and doctor knew anything about this stuff or it meant anything to them.

JPatt, that is a very high score. You scored higher than my son and he is diagnosed as being Autistic PDD-NOS. Have you ever been evaluated for Asperger's Syndrome?

Syndrome Aspergers You Do

The only testing I've had has been the MMPI 600 question index, which was free because of my Cherokee tribal membership at the Indian Hospital when I voluntarily started going there for my anxiety, and general Oklahoma state counseling evaluation, and the overall conclusion has been generalized anxiety, chronic depression and the opposite of euphoria, dysphoria. This area doesn't put much stock in things like Asperger's or mood or social disorders - it's all things you just need to get past with behavioral-cognitive therapy because you learned how to socialize or cope improperly. I've been trying to get mental disability since 2006, to be honest, but it isn't moving much.

Do You Have Asperger's Syndrome?

I remember your situation from your Thread, but I was wondering if the root cause as not associated with something else. For PDD-NOS you may wish to look at this Thread: Source 9

Do You Asperger's Syndrome - Page 2

I don't understand at all what you mean - the root cause as not associated with something else - what does that mean? Root cause of what? Of my depression and such, or of my potential asperger's? Asperger's isn't a "condition" like depression is it - it's a genetic thing right? I will go look at this other link, I'd like to learn more about this, maybe talk to my lawyer and counselor about all this.

Well do not get excited, I'm not a psychologist. I'm merely focusing on the point that you said you only had minimal testing and therefore there may be another root cause to your current symptoms. Consider this:

* Usually if you have diabetes it means you have to control your sugar levels. In worst cases you have to take injections, that is not the root of the problem. The root cause is usually that you are overweight, lack exercise and so the body has broken down. Look at Drew Carey, through diet and loss of all his weight he solved the problem - no more diabetes. My point is that you often list what you are going through... Depression, etc. However you seem unaware of what is actually the root cause.

* My suggestion is that you go through the pages of this Board looking for the Threads that deal with Autism / Asperger's and related and see if anything that is Discussed matches what you are going through in your life. You can Reply in those Threads so we keep this one on topic.

* The test score you received suggests that you should look into it more. Many people do not realize they have Asperger's or other Autistic traits but when they are evaluated and get answers certain things become understood by them - it gives the root reason to their symptoms and then a prognosis can be given to help you cope.
