I mean, it depends. Autism is a spectrum disorder. There are people with autism who are fully functional and successful members of society. And there are people with autism who are incapable of speaking or communicating. For people with very severe autism the world is a constant assault on their senses, making it nearly impossible for them to interact with others.

Yes, exactly. My friend is working as rehabilitation specialist for autistic kids, and from what she tells me life for those kids is nothing like typical HN meme 'autism is my superpower' implies.
