I understand what you say about people trying to get diagnosed with ASD for benefits, as it effects those who actually need them. Though I myself fall on the Asperger side of the spectrum, It's a maturity thing. Some people may have the condition but aren't mature enough in life. I also have a mild form of bi-polar, and I think you have the wrong end of the stick with that. How it effects me is sleepless nights, productivity throughout long periods, overwhelming ambition followed by melancholy and inactivity. So absolutely nothing brought on by drug abuse, I do no such thing.

Now take into account there are things which prevent people from giving jobs their all. Take my Aspergers for example, I have sensory sensitivity so I hear things louder than neurotypical people, I also have the inability to concentrate with many things going on at once (making my mind feel scattered). These symptoms can seriously affect a person's work ethic and in some cases, are quite hazardous to fellow workers given the wrong job. It's quite easy to let the external stimuli overwhelm me and it just makes me passive aggressive, nobody wants to lose their shit around a bunch of people, it's embarrassing.

Some have it harder than others, yes some throw in the towel... I please ask that you attempt patience and compassion with us, we're fellow humans and we all have our hardships in life
