I actually don't even like getting sympathy for it which is why I don't usually express the things that suck about autism, but I share insight so other people understand autism a bit better as it can be very socially disabling without most people even noticing you have a disability.
Yes, that makes sense. People are becoming a little more aware now but there is still a big gap between people who are autistic and people who are not, in terms of understanding and relating to each other. I have read a few good books written by people who have autism, sharing their experience. Those have been helpful and eye opening to me. It's too bad more employers etc. don't read them.
Just wish life wasn't so hard for so many people and that it would be easier to have what we think we need/want.
