Are the any legal restrictions for autistic people, other than not being able to join the army?

Can anyone help with this, please? By getting a diagnosis, am I opening myself up to having less legal rights? I know I won't be able to join the army, but are there any other things that I won't be allowed to do, or where someone in authority can assume I don't have the capacity to make my own decisions?

  • i tried to join the navy.... now im not diagnosed, but on the interview they pry deeply into your life and want to know you and how you live.... they rejected me because i dont go out and dont have a social life or any friends. they found it suspicious. they are allowed to discriminate against anyone who may be autistic.... because in war a person with communication issues can get his entire team killed, so they get a exception and pass to reject people they even suspect of being mentally unwell in any way.

  • to be fair i think they made the right choice on me though. i get too depressed and probably would shoot myself if i had a gun. they can reject you on depression too.... they ask if you have been depressed in the past whatever months or something, if you say yes thats a immediate reject. so you have to say no if you really wanna join.
