    I just realised, I did it in the wrong place I think.
    I just went to google and found a free myers briggs.

    The one I did was here: http://www.sharedpaths.com/personality-type/index2.html


    I've now found your link. I will do that one then update here.

    But the questions are hard and confusing me already.

    e.g. You enjoy having a wide circle of acquaintances - how can you tell if you've never had that.

    e.g. You feel involved when watching TV soaps - what does involved mean.

    These questions need more detail to be able to answer a lot of them.

    Update
    Got there in the end. A handful of questions didn't make sense or fit with my lifestyle. That aside, I got:

    Thanks for the info about the pushchairs Sarah / Elaine / BM I didn't realise that the Phil & Teds was available as a single I'll have a bit of a search around.

    Sarah the social worker did mention that there was help available for buying one so I'll have a chat with her too

    We're off to a soft play especially for special needs tomorrow so I'll let you know how he gets on

    Aspies tend to be INTJs...or ISTJs :p


    Here;s what your personality type means:

    http://www.typelogic.com/istj.html


    The enjoy a wide circle of acquaintances would be a no for you. The soap opera question is about empathy...are you able to watch a soap and truly involve yourself in the storyline......can you "lose yourself" in the story as it develops? I would assume the answer to that one would be no, too...it's no for me.
    In a rut? Can't get out? Don't know why?

    Flamin ech i just done a search on these pushchairs expensive or what, i dont ever remember when my kids were babies that pushchairs were so pricey omggg.

    Anyway Sam ive looked on the net for you if you put in Phil and Ted stroller into ebay.co.uk there are some listed there on auction or buy it now prices. Seem a hell of a lot cheaper if you buy from the USA and get them to ship it over. also found a uk web site http://www.pramworld.co.uk/index.html?action=search&submit=go&searchtype=brandID&quicksearch=15&p_start=0&gclid=CLSS_5XM9pACFQ6ZQwodzByz1Q

    Mothercare have up to 33% sale at the moment too.

    Hopefully social services can help you out Sam xx

  • Hi Sam....yes i understand completely your feelings about it being a special needs buggy:rolleyes:
    I hated mine when i first got it and put it up....it looked huge and i felt like ds hd a sign over his head saying special needs....but i needed it as he just runs out into road, rolls around floor in shops etc, wont use reins as he just lies on floor and refuses to move.

    I try to do without it now but still need it to go to shops etc ( just small shops for small amounts of shopping, cannot go to supermarkets as the smells, noises and amount of people overwhelms him, even with his ear defenders on:rolleyes: )

    it does make the elite very expensive when you have to buy the extras on top....and a warning for you, the extras are not easy to get hold of either.

    hope you are coping ok with the new diagnosis.....takes a lot of coming to terms with:A

    Another test is here:
    http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=1982215450153908026

    This on has been used for research purposes etc. I have an AS score on this one.

    My boss has contacted someone about getting me assessed..... not sure if I want to know officially or not :confused:

    I'd never lose myself in a soap. Or any programme/film/whatever.
    I can't even see how that's possible!

    I tend to sit and look for inconsistencies.
