>>9557736Yes. Especially. I know autists that decided they did not want their autism to take control of their lives and stopped meds even though they were once special ed. These autists that I am speaking of are functional members of society, however keep in mind that with autism comes a few general changes.
>What changes if I have autism?From my observation, autists have a tendency to like to stick to patterns. These patterns could be those of sloth which leads to the stereotypical disgusting "gamer" or "internet NEET" archetype which can be visible upon looking at thy room/living space. On the other hand, autistic disorder allows you to get set into a better pattern and stay in it comfortably and naturally.
TLDR: Harder to start, easier to stay on track with autism. Otherwise, it has to do with motivation. If you cannot self- motivate, you will not achieve.
