Meta: Sherlock, Aspergers and Autism - the psychiatrists opinion

[Van Buren Supernova]

That's the problem with some quizzes, also when they force you to choose something when nothing is really applicable, too obvious questions, or just couple of questions then a 'deep' conclusion.

 

But I guess it's all for fun. If it fits what I want, I buy the analysis. If it doesn't, then I don't

My son used to think that playing with someone meant playing next to them not necessarily with the same set of toys.

 

And this would be different from a "normal" boy in what way?

 

A gal we know complained that she had made lots of tasty edibles for her son's birthday party, and he had invited all of his friends.  But when they got there, they all just sat at the table, each focusing on their own Game Boy, and now and then groping blindly for food.  She asked him later why they hadn't done something together, and he replied that that wouldn't have been any fun.

 

 

No electronics as it was at school back in preschool/kindergarten around the time when most "normal" children would actually play together.

Try this one Alexithymia Test

I score 121.

High Alexithymia in all area except

some in Restrictive Imaginative Processes and No alexithymia trait in Difficulty to Identify Feeling (means I can identify well but not acting on it?)

 

Oh well, Of course. Of course.

 

 

I got 90 so no Alexithymia for me.  If you would have asked me 15 to 20 years ago, I might have been on the low end, but I have since figured out some emotional feelings that I didn't understand back then.
