Oi vey, that's a loaded question.

It would totally depend on whose definition of low functioning you're using, I suppose. I am sometimes (often) nonverbal, but I can basically go to the bathroom and bathe myself and things like that.

If pressed into only a yes or no answer, I would say no.


I purposely made it a loaded question with only 2 options so as to force people to choose instead of taking the easy route of selecting "partially/sometimes/maybe/other". We all have a rather similar conception of what LFA is so I think it's OK.

I think I'd call you mid functioning, based on what I know of you.
