Dude, just found this comminity the other day. Being honest, I always suspected and actually acknowledged some of the traits i had and have as autistic-ish; hell, even when growing up my mom and I used to joke around about me being autistic. But time passed and learned how to “act in life” and things were left only as a joke.
Anyway, I saw here someone sharing a link to RAADS test. I said to myself, naaah this is just a bunch of people seeking for validation of the ideas they already have. Fast forward a couple days, that idea never left me and took the test (I know what you are thinking) .
I just don’t know what to do with the results, honestly, I was expecting the score to be something in the realm of 100. But it is a fucking 176.
I just don’t know, man…
An expert would use your answers to that test perhaps as a basis for the real assessment.
Is that the one that forces you to remember how you were before 16? … I wonder if anyone over 25 ever completed that. :-)
haha yes that’s the test I took. I give you that there are some weird phrased sentences, even the authors say it by themselves, but I think that for people interested in some kind of certainty or self-acceptance, It really is a good first tool to encounter.
I found it was unsuitable for me, as i could barely remember how i was before 16. I think that an expert would more like assess my reactions to the question rather than the answers … “What does this question actually mean? … I can not answer that …”
