I apologize if this has been posted before but I really liked it. I seem to be a combination of 4, 5, and 7. Especially getting caught up in my special interests, daydreaming, and feeling like I relate to other time periods. Really hope I'm not bipolar though

Note: I think I seem to be the most like 7... but am definitely a combination.

I say I would fall with 2, 4, 5, and 7.

4, 5, and 7 does seem to be a common combination for aspies in general.

You're right... I suppose I am very good at spelling and sometimes I think I carry around too much anger inside myself, but I don't mean to say I'm angry every day. I think I'm actually more cynical, which carries me to the word bitter, for being treated differently. I don't think I would have naturally been this way if not for being treated differently. But now I'm just rambling.

I think I may be mainly 4 and 7 with some other parts here and there from probably 1 to 3.

2, 4 mostly (pretty emotionally stable though) - some folks may perceive me as 8, but I don't consider myself to be a "superior person" or "important person", I only acknowledge my skill in specific areas as a result of hyperfocus and high IQ... but I was given a personality test by the neurologist and there wasn't any notable indication of narcissistic tendency, so if people are feeling that way about me it's apparently a misconception

I am 4, 5, and 7.

This was a fun video to look at---not aware of all the different types of us out there. There were certain things in the 2 and 8 type that is somewhat like me. But 4, 5, and 7 are definitely me.

I am guilty of that, too.

I'm #7 all the way, #2 almost entirely, strong influence from #4, with shades of #5.

Same again, with 7 being the strongest probably.

Hm.. very interesting. I think I'm 2,3,4 and a bit 7 and 8. I don't however have the very high iq thing, just around 110- 120 on some tests.

Great link. I think I am 4) which is the daydreamy type that is often misunderstood.
Also 6) which is the type which is friendly and hyperactive but thought of as annoying and immature by others and doesnt tend to keep friends easily.
