Autism test

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hmm, 27 here. Under the 'threshold' of 32 it refers to, but still significantly higher than the average 16.4.

Oh, and I wonder if "Psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen" is related to Sacha Baron-Cohen?

Unless of course you happen to know someone who's life is totally dominated by an OCD, he can not function properly in society, can not hold down a job, can't deal with life's complexities. His daily life is so controlled by his OCD's that he simply lives to be ruled by them. He is trapped in his world by them.....so therefore I don't find OCD's funny.


It's all relative PiB.We all have weak spots or particular 'no-no's' when it comes to life and its complexities.

I'm sure there was no malice aforethought.

My older brother has OCD was diagnosed about 15 years ago. Was a living hell at first. His wife left him, the army discharged him, he had to live with my parents, after my parents died he now lives with my oldest brother but he will never be able to be on his own, he is now working though finally found the mixture of meds that work for him. Drives everyone insane. My oldest sis avoids holidays becuz she doesn't want to be around him. He often calls me, asking if he is ok and I have to remind him that he is having irrational thoughts. I have his 10 year old son 6 days a week. His is not only germ phobia but a religious one where he cannot stop praying and thinks he has constantly sinned. When he first moved out, my mother and I found his bedroom walls where covered in little crosses and inch apart. There was a time when he couldn't dress himself or open doors. The rituals he had to preform had taken over his life. He is better now he can drive and work as a security guard.

Weird. On another forum I'm on, someone posted something suggesting a link between OCD and religious mania :eek:

I can totally relate to that.
My 13 yr old had a discussion first day of school regarding the movie The Possesion of Emily Rose. She like I does not believe in demonic possesion. I believe it is a mental illness. There was a time when ever my brother saw me he would start his ritual praying. No I am not that scarey looking!
