I recently discovered, that this could create some issues for me. I want to get diagnosed, but I’m concerned about how it will affect me in a legal sense. I was wondering if there’s a way, I can find out that information?

Edit: I am from Australia Currently, as it stands, retaining my drivers license post diagnosis, demands that I disclose my diagnosis, and do another test to prove I am fit to drive. This test costs $1,500. I have already started my assessment, and am doing my second session soon. I don’t want to not go through with it, because it is valuable to know for sure, that I am autistic. It may also give me accommodations, but it may be difficult to get depending on my support needs.

    I would love to hear perspectives from non-Australian people as well! Currently in Canada and wondering the same thing; but I am also hoping to compile this information so I can better advocate and highlight issues to my peers for fellow autistic people in their countries.
