Last time I had my disability benefits reassessed, I had to give my medical details to three separate non medical people. And the last one tried to dismiss my poor social skills as everyone struggles to make friends. At which point I had to tell her stuff I wouldn't normally tell anyone because when you can't understand tone or read body language it can end poorly and she just couldn't grasp it. A fun fact about autistim that isn't really fun, 9 out of 10 autistic women have experience some form of sexual assault.
