Autism test
Autism is a neuro-psychiatric disorder that can cause difficulties in social and everyday life in various ways. Here you can do a self-test that gives an indication of whether you may have autism.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects how a person perceives and interacts with their environment. Common signs include difficulties in socialising, the need for a set routine and intense interests. They may also be sensitive to sensory input such as light and sound. Autism can look different from person to person and presents both challenges and strengths.
This autism self-test is inspired by criteria from the DSM-5 diagnostic manual and can give a first indication of whether you may have autistic traits. The test is not a substitute for a professional diagnosis, but it can provide insight into whether you have symptoms of autism that may require you to seek medical attention. If the test shows that you have several features that match, you may want to seek further support.
What should I do if I have symptoms of autism
If you have symptoms of autism that are negatively affecting your daily life or relationships, you might consider contacting a psychologist or doctor for a more in-depth assessment of your symptoms. If you have symptoms of autism, you can then undergo a neuropsychiatric assessment, which can provide answers to whether you have a diagnosis of autism. At Lavendla, we have experienced psychologists and doctors who can help you. We make the difficult easier.
