So I agree with some of the authors' sentiments & I even relate to her a bit. We are both autistic girls, after all. However, I'm not into her whole "recovery from autism" thing. Also, the "remember things could be worse" thing seems a bit bootstrappy to me.

"...when we celebrate a disability, we forget the burdens it imposes on people."
So if my reading comprehension is working properly, the implication the author is making is that any disability inherently makes you a burden to others.
