This might be a stupid question but do all people living with autism have meltdowns in some form or another?

A member of asda staff was particularily rude..."Oi! We're closed!...Don't ignore me!...I wont let you pay for those items!"
I shouted "How dare you speak to me like that! I'll take your [expleetive] job!" and stormed towards customer service to complain.
I was intercepted by a supervisor...who was also rude...ordering me, several times in tones only really appropriate to law enforcement personel "put those things down!"... I tossed, underarm, the cola bottles to the floor at the supervisors feet and continued storming to customer service...the supervisor follows.
I demand the full name of both employees involved so far to target my complaint...they refuse...I demand employee numbers they claim not to have such. More staff arrive...standard mobbing tactics...addressing me constantly from different angles...making me turn my head all the time...never letting me engage one person...a younger male member of staff is glaring w clenched fists, trying to intimidate...they accuse me of having assaulted the original member of staff, by throwing the cola at her...I said "if I throw something at someone, I hit them"...they said "write that down hes making threats"..."and damaging our stock...call the police"
I scribble an inarticulate complaint in the book then go to leave...they try to escort me out with the supervisor on one shoulder and the aggressive male on the other...I stop..refuse to be marched like a prisoner...the aggressive male grabs at me...I throw him off...the manager is sent for...he takes me aside and asks for an explanation...dam his social superpowers...2 minuites later I find myself appologising to him for desturbing his staff
The incedent still fills me w rage...as a result of this and of increased social anxiety, I can no longer get my groceries from asda...have to pay more for a delivery service now...
