Isn't autism a disability?
So if I say I am unable to work because of a disability, and they ask which disability, and I say autism.
Then many people say autism is not a disability and that is just an excuse for laziness.
But I say because of my autism I may never be able to live independently.
They say nonsense, excuses.
Who's right? They often think that all autistic people are highly intelligent.
But why don't they believe that autism is a massive disability?
Autism can be a disability, but does not have to. This can only be decided by the respective autist/the respective autist for himself. No one else. Only I know and can feel how my autism impedes me in what aspects and that’s exactly how it is with you and with other autists.
That’s quite simple. There is no clear “yes” or “no” response.
That’s what they say. It is very much like to assert that neurodiverse/disabled people (especially in the case of invisible disabilities such as autism) would only use their autism as an excuse and that is a very distracting submission. They’re just people who can’t see reality. The reality that not every autist/not every disabled person can hold as an inspiration P*rn. Some don’t like that. Some people are sensitive to it. For stripping wants every disabled person to be able to overcome his disability, or at least tries to do so completely.
I am sure there are also autists who are highly intelligent and still cannot pursue any work. Being high-intelligent does not always bring you much in this case.
Correct, and I’m sorry to be called intelligent because it doesn’t bring me much general knowledge, but not really working everyday.
Yeah, that’s understandable. I don’t like it either. Sure, I don’t want to be insulted as “dumm”, but how dimensioned people who say I/du would/would be intelligent my/deine intelligence? You see how I articulate (at least online) – More not. But surely they would think I would be stubborn if they would see my testimonials from then, or if they knew that I had strong problems shopping without calculators (to compute the purchase), or, or, or.
Then they would probably accuse you of laziness.
How many times I had to listen to that I just don’t want to. Just because they think I’m so smart.
To be classified as super smart is not so great, because then people have insane expectations for you.
Both sides flatten extremely strongly. You are not automatically intelligent with austism, nor are you automatically incapable of working. Therefore, neither one is automatically lazy nor is one automatically incapable of living independently.
All of this is KANN, but it doesn’t have to. It does not mean that autism is a spectrum for nothing.
The norm is that most autists are strongly restricted.
Do you have any statistics? Because it doesn’t cover with my experience at all.
This comment shows where the problem is. From the autists you only take a certain group and then give it as the entire group or the majority.
Probably because you don’t have much to do with severely restricted autists.
Hello,
I know autists who are completely out of their minds to live a normal life, and others who get well and, at worst, go to their fellow human beings gradually.
This is a wide field of severely disabled to not obstructed at all.
Best regards,

Most autists are quite limited
But not all.
Because they have no idea. The maximum knowledge of autism is limited to feature films such as Rainman etc. You have to try to explain it every time. Then there are people who listen to you and others do not. That’s all you can do.
But why are the media this?
The media are often exclusively about selling, information is only communicated if necessary. Autism is unimportant for 99% of people and therefore it is hardly interested.
Naja Autism is a SPEKTRUM. So there’s the island gifted inside that can’t wear the shoes alone. Except for the simply socially unhappy one who can do his work completely normal.
Most have a false picture of autism through television. They think they’re great in math, but they’re a little weird.
Autism is not regarded as a disability, but only as a mental disorder. You need to first diagnose that you additionally have a mental disability.
But, autism is a disability that can lead to incapable and unfit for life.
Don’t have to, but can. It’s like that with me.
No, she’s not automatic. The diagnosis of autism is not like a diagnosis allergy to lactose. You never know how pronounced this is and whether there are real restrictions or not. Many don’t even realize they’re autists.
Neurological development disorder (You see this on the left, in the listing. Under “Mental, behavioural or neurodevelopmental disorders”, then further under “Neurodevelopmental disorders” and then under “Autism spectrum disorder”.)
No mental disorder.
You’re welcome.
Nothing is simple, you have to work it out.
so easy it is not
You seem to write. Maybe try something in the direction.
In fact, this is now the case with me. I’ll never be able to work normally.
“99 percent of Autists are not Savants” I have never claimed.
“and not particularly intelligent” By far not every job requires high intelligence. Even people without medical history can suffer from reduced intelligence
“We must stop believing that autism would be a superpower.” I didn’t say. You may have to stop seeing Autism as a final and final judgment, alla life over.
99 percent of the Autists are not Savants, and not particularly intelligent, and definitely restricted.
And we have to stop believing that autism would be a superpower.
I would give everything to be healed.
if you really have autism, do you have a breath or a disabled card?
or suck it out of your finger.
Yes, but they doubt that I’m disabled even though I’m incapable of working, they think I’m just lazy.
Most of all, of course, lay people.
I also think you’re lazy and you’re looking for an excuse…who’s incapable of work has a certificate for this….
Yes, I am incapable of working.
No, you don’t have a certificate if you don’t have a disabled card, no invalid pension….
I have a certificate.
But questioning many lay people. But honestly, who would hire me? I have zero chances, I can’t live in an apartment myself either.
