Autistic here: I’m not even being let to work in my field, because people think autism = intellectual disability, and therefore I only play games on the PC, and all my achievements are due to some Forrest Gump style meddling from my mother.

Still, that sucks and shouldn’t be the case. Plenty of autistic people I know completely rock at their stuff, and overall do not perform worse.
