OK, now explain this to me.

My Brain

Your Aspie score: 118 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 88 of 200
You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits

I'm guessing "Aspie" = Asperger's Syndrome.

Most people exhibit some Asperger's traits. You don't get the label unless you have them all in a marked degree.

Different psychiatric disorders have overlapping symptoms. I once saw a graph that figured autism and Asperger's syndrome on a continuum that also includes ADHD. And frankly, everyone has at least a touch of most of the recognized disorders. It's when they go to an extreme where there is disorder instead of diversity.
