Okay. I took the test again. My past anxiety and depression are in check now, so I thought that would make me "less autistic" on that test as quite a few questions relate to social anxiety.
And I got the lowest score I've ever had -- 30. (Previously I was getting ~35 ±3.)
But 30 is still above the threshold for indicating Asperger's. I've mentioned this over the years to a few close friends and family -- and my old therapist -- and their response was always "don't be so silly!".
It's as if I have some strong "Aspie" traits, but not others so much. I'm just wondering how much these tests can be relied upon... :-/
Well in my case as i sed i couldent rely on them to mush ether so i checked and so on and took quite a few others and got the same result al over the board (and i also took Depression , anxiety test as well as Bipolar test and i was aparantly WAY up top there as well i might ad) THEN as i sed i checked my latest DSM test -5 (20010 ) and saw black and white that i do have significant traits of symtoms related to ASD so thats why im able to conclude that i have significant ADS traits as well as previos severe ADHD so i would say they are quite relieble HOWEVER as is also stated they are NOT ment to be medicaly diagnoses only gudelines of possible risks for sed diagnoce and if you have concerns you are sugested to seek profetinal help to get a thural diagnocis
Anonther point might be as over here the bar for being diagnosed ASD have been raised and some that have previosly been diagnosed with say Asbergers are now failing that grade as to higher points required to get ASD diagnose
