Hello,

I am certain I have high functioning autism. However with the current world situation my neurological testing is on hold for another 4 months :-(

I did do an online test and it came back with the following:

Your neurodiverse (Aspie) score: 151 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 82 of 200
You are very likely neurodiverse (Aspie)

I have been attending some online chat sessions with other Aspies and it has been the first time I found others could understand me.

Hope this site can provide me some help understanding and support in these strange times

Hi and a warm welcome to you :)! Sorry to hear your plans for diagnosis have been put on hold for a bit. A temporary glitch that should be put right before too long hopefully. Meanwhile, this is a great place to meet, greet & discuss any issues or interests you might have. I used to live in your part of the world - soo beautiful in New England! Good to have you with us.
