I am autistic and in my country I've been told before by my case worker that I qualify for MAID. This cruel world just isn't meant for people like me, and I am now starting the application process for MAID.

Wait, did your caseworker just announce this eligibility to you without you having asked about it?

Or have I wildly misread the situation?

I was speaking to her about how difficult it is to navigate a world that wasn't made for people like myself, and she suggested MAID.

Got it. And what did you make of her suggesting that in response?
