He said I didn't, that I wasn't like that. I couldn't tell you because my memory of the past is very poor. I do remember playing ... |

| Think I'm better off not knowing if I have autism or not. I'd be very upset if it turned out I actually do have autism and might make me worry about it more. If you are doing OK without knowing for sure and would prefer not to know for sure then...fine! :thumright: Not getting a definitive answer, ... |

I don't know whether or not there is a problem. I don't know whether any action is required.

| Well scored 33 on the AQ test but still hate to think of myself of autistic and ADHD. And still wish I was a genius for some reason instead of average. I guess it doesn't help I got all these ideas stuck in my head but kind of hate to put in the effort to get them out. When the AQ test gave me my s... |
