very angry

Professor Precise-a-bug

I am A very new member of the community, only just being told I am autistic at age 67.

Without boring everyone with the whole story, I have recently been kicked off a community project steering committee on account of my autistic behaviour. I was described as disruptive and challenging. Separately, I have been denied membership of a local sports club due to difficulties that arose during lockdown where my challenging autistic behaviour of created friction.

I do not see that I should have to put up with such discrimination. So, my question is, can someone point me in the direction of any court cases where an employer has been found to breach the Equalities Act 2010 regarding someone’s autism?

  • I can sympathise with this, although my situation was with an ex friend of mine. They had aspergers and were critisisng every little mistake I made, and always pushing self improvement on me. In the end I snapped and called them a failure and worthless, told them their girlfriend was going to leave them and called them useless. I regret doingb as I was very close to this person, but enough was enough. There isnt a day that goes by that I dont regret what I did. I even asked them to stop pushing self improvement on me, but they refused. This person was masking and trying to fit in, very insecure about themselves and pushed that insecurity on me. The bottom line is that some people just wont listen.
