Sheesh, Grace.... how desperately did you > want conversation that the small chat with the cashier put you back in a > good mood? LOL!! Hey, Grace, it's not desperate, it's wonderful. There you are tired and discouraged and a cheerful word from a fellow creature puts you right again. Now that's resilience. Be grateful.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2001 Report Share Posted December 18, 2001 > Is 31 good....who was the control group? Autistics? > Should I retire to an assisted living facility? > Ron: 31 is irrelevant. It's good; it's bad. It depends on what you do with your 31. It does happen to be Enrique's score, but obviously you are functioning better than Enrique. The test is NOT a dx; it merely notes certain social traits that are more common among people with autism and family members of people with autism than the non-autistic control group. You have family members with autism so your score is not at all surprising. You're fine, Ron. Salli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2001 Report Share Posted December 18, 2001 > Did you notice there was no sensory stuff? A lot of the things were kind of sensory-related, though. It's not just that you don't like people & can't relate to them...it's also that they move around too much and smell too strongly (even good smells) and talk too loudly and... But yes, I know what you mean, and it would make a difference. -Sara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2001 Report Share Posted December 18, 2001 Well, Jacquie, you were one of the first ones who said that they thought they were aspergers before. Maybe that is why you and Marc hang in there together. You both share enough qualities to kind of understand the other?

That's why I was hoping he'd take the test, I wanted to see MORE!
