This is one of a series of discussion posts based on questions from the AQ-10 autism test. ## 8. If there is an interruption, I can switch back to what I was doing very quickly. - Definitely Agree - Slightly Agree - Slightly Disagree - Definitely Disagree — Is this statement true for you? Can you think of any examples? Is it an easy or difficult question for you to answer? You can take the full AQ-10 test here [https://embrace-autism.com/aq-10]. Note this test is intended as a quick screener, and cannot diagnose or rule out any condition on its own. — First post in this series [https://sh.itjust.works/post/9023136]

Not very quickly, no. If the task needed working memory, that will be gone. I’ll need to take a moment to reassess what I was doing and where I’m up to. If there were X,Y,Z subtasks, I’ll need to check which ones are done and which not. A long enough interruption and I might forget entirely and not return to the task at all. If someone interrupts me by trying to help, in a way that I don’t immediately understand, I find that very irritating.

Disagree. I’m leaning towards Definitely Disagree but it’s not a definite definitely haha.
