When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Hmmm... hard one as you havent phrased it well enough... do you mean to the extent where you're in a wheelchair or something like dyspraxia?

No, I'm not physically disabled. My coordination and strength is weak and poor but I'm not physically disabled.

I don't think low blood pressure counts (though it affects my ability to run because I get dizzy, I can physically do it. I wonder what it's called...just general health issues?)

My right side of my nervous system was damaged, and I could barely move it for years. However, it has gotten a lot better. I called myself disabled, but I'm so close to a full recovery that the name is meaningless.

I have dystonia down my right side and have to walk with a cane, so yes, I am disabled physically.

I'm getting on a bit in years, and have problems with my back. There is something causing pain directly in my right sciatic region, the doctors don't know what it is. It is somewhat painful all the time, and especially so when I try to stand for any period of time or walk very far. I have a handicapped sticker that allows me to park in handicapped spaces.

I don't consider it a major disability, I'm not in a wheelchair or anything. But it affects my life, how much I can do.
