Type 4 is mine -- I edited it for the sake of not knowing whether or not I possess an ASD.

I'm a mix of type 1 and 2 I think. Well I'm a type 1 that want to be normal and compare myself with NT's is more exactly what type I am.

I'm a type 3. My AS affects more of my motor skills (my hand writing is total crap). But at the time I was diagnosed, I was a type 1, easily. Always acting up and melting down and completely unaware of how awkward and stupid I looked ( I was 8 ). By the time I was 11, I was a type 2, and once I hit 13 I had become more of a type 3. Now most people have no idea I'm an aspie.

I'm 2/3, because I do very rarely have public meltdowns (they were more common when I was younger) but now most people can't really tell at all, except I seem a little 'odd' to them, mostly because when you talk about something I'm interested in, I don't shut up unless they change the subject...

I am a type 3, although i cant say as though im the most popular kid in school. I am very social and love socializing so long as while im socializing, meaning having sleepovers going to dances etc. i can have a break from people every so often. such as going somehwere quiet for a few minutes every so often, whether its the bathroom or maybe in my room pretending im trying to get something.

Which type of Aspie are you most like?
Type 1: Has a lot of trouble figuring out social rules. Mostly unaware of the social world. Has public meltdowns all the time.
Type 2: Wants to be normal but can't help acting different. Aware of the social world but sometimes socially awkward. Compares self to NTs all the time. Tries not to have public meltdowns but may have them once in a while.
Type 3: Very mild AS. No one can tell he/she has AS.
Type 4: Aware of the social world but is proud of being an Aspie. Mild to moderate differences. Makes fun of NTs. Does not have public meltdowns.

I'm a Type 2. Depending on what mood I'm in, I either wish I was a Type 3 or a Type 4. I used to be a Type 1 until I was 13.



I'm thinking I'm a Type 2.

Yeah, I'm a Type 2.

I wonder about Type 3 though. No one knows I have AS but me (for now). People have made comments on my differentness before though....

Im a mix if type 2 and 3. I do have very mild AS, most people cant tell and wont intially think theres something that different about me unless I point it out to them or they've known me well for a while. To them, Im just a strange NT where Im kinda weird but its within acceptable limits for the most part. But then internally, I nitpick at everything, and I do act different then most people and I overexaggerate this in my head and I want to be normal.

In the realistic scheme of things. Im kinda ackward and weird but not to the extremes. It does affect me socially and make it harder then normal to make friends but Im still capable of making friends and connecting with people and doing majority of the activites that NTs do. Even the ones with huge social stimuli, like going to a club but I cant be there for long periods of time. I can spend an entire day with friends, like 12+ hrs but I cant do this consistently.

Can I be a combo of some of the types?

Some symptoms of AS I have severely, some I have moderately, some I have mildly and some I don't have at all.

I'm a type 2 in some instances and type 3 in others.


Ditto.

I am somewhere between three and four. No one really knows about my AS unless I say so, and I know enough about socialization and conformism to dislike them passionately. I don't make fun of NT's unless they are messing up their lives because of their blindly illogical and romantic behavior. Pains me to think about.

Type two. I think at some point when I was younger I was one as I'd have a lot of meltdowns over little things, but I don't do that very much anymore unless I get really stressed (I go through phases of feeling fine about myself, and being unable to cope and breaking down over tiny things all the time). I wish I was four but I'm nowhere near confident enough for that.
