I don't come across as autistic.
But I am, and would never change it.
When dealing with organisations/companies in regards to making a complaint, or in any other capacity, I find that once I have told them I am autistic, I often find that they treat me even worse.
Sadly there is still so much discrimination out there.
Sometimes I regret telling them.
Anyone else ever found this?
I often say things like 'i have sensory processing struggles', or, 'please can you repeat that I would benefit from a slower conversation'
Gets around this issue. For me, it is none of their business. But telling them what I struggle with gives them the option to tailor their approach a little
