A member on this board had Asperger's Syndrome and would never stfu about it, but he was very informational nonetheless. I got a 19.

I am officially the most autistic person on this thread, mainly because I can't stand the company of others, and am number oriented. Awesome.

28. Sounds about right. I'm good with, and like, numbers, but not to the point of obsession. I dislike social contact with strangers, hate the phone with pathological strength, and get nervous easily, but I'm not incapable of social contact by any means - once I do get used to people I can get on great with them.

Everyone's a little bit autistic.

Oh, and I'm 54% 'pure', whatever that means.

It's hilarious how everyone in that thread thinks they have it. Hypochondria much?

Everyone's a qualified doctor thanks to Wikipedia, duh.

Actually many doctors are nowadays finding that the internet offers a high degree of understanding to patients suffering from uncommon diseases etc. They can get support from others, especially useful if only a few people in ten thousand get something, and the collaborative efforts of these groups, combined with the research power of the internet, can give patients surprisingly good understanding of their afflictions.

I never even heard of Aspergers until like a year ago, and now there are about a zillion people on the intarweb who say they have it as an excuse for why they're incapable of behaving appropriately in social situations.

While that may be true, you also get multitudes of people who just randomly say 'oh I have OCD' when they're just overly cautious or forgetful (I've been known to walk back to my car in the parking lot just to make sure I locked it, just because I forget if I did or didn't along the way, and more than once as well, because I keep second-guessing myself, but that doesn't mean I have OCD), or the ones that say they have Asperger's just because they have slight social issues. In many cases, their social awkwardness is self-inflicted.

Very true. A friend of mine successfully diagnosed himself with rat bite fever after researching it for a few days before coming down with many of the major symptoms. He was literally laying on his death bed, due to most of his major organs failing, tell the doctors what was killing him. After they exhausted all of their other assumptions, they finally gave in and got a specialist in that specific field to come diagnose him. The two had a talk about how ignorant the doctors taking care of him were.
