I'm trying to get myself to a point where I can go to the doctor and ask for a referall for a diagnosis. I decided to start by writing down all the reasons I think I am autistic. I wanted to include the AQ test result. I find some of the long AQ test questions (50 questions) difficult to answer.
For example:
Having written this I've concluded that I'm probably really over thinking this but I like things to be right. Anyone else had an issue with the AQ test? Any advice?
yeah I struggled a bit with some of the questions, like you I wanted to give alternative answers.
I had another test to do for my assessment which was even more specific - eg "would you be happy rewiring the electrics in your house?"
I ended up filling in the questions I felt confident answering in pen, and the ones I wasn't so sure on in pencil, and explained this.
Thanks. Glad I'm not the only one. Pen and pencil is a good shout. I just want to be able to answer none or sometimes. I also find the concept of slightly agreeing with something a bit daft.
What does rewiring the electrics to your house have to do with autism? I mean my answer would be no I'd blow myself up but I think that's more to being clueless about electrics than autism.
