Curiosity gave in and I had a go, apparently I score 176 on the test. That seems really high, but then I often gave answers I wasn’t 100% on because I was somewhere in between.
Yeah, that’s also where I ran into issues, I’m quite reserved socially but with the right people and the right vibe I can come alive. In my personal life I’m known for my dinner parties and other sort of old fashion gatherings, but those spaces are very curated by me so I’m much more relaxed. Same goes for compassion and all those other complex emotions, I can be uncomfortably devoid of them but then I can also flip a switch and be all over it.
I feel the exact same way. A lot of the questions I do need context. Like, is the party organised by me? Or will it be a family gathering? I like the library, but would it be during school hours and after babies/toddlers have gone or will it be after school or in the morning for story time. Like there are so many different variables.
I know that I score in the “might have autism might not have it” area, but that’s because ADHD and autism are cousins (which funnily enough I have ADHD and my cousin has autism) so often a lot of the symptoms will overlap, and also trauma can manifest itself in ways that are similar to both ADHD and autism.

Exactly! Maybe bring up the map too just in case I’ve discovered other places.
