I’m very sorry that you have felt that you need to hide being autistic in the frum world. Whoever made you feel that way is NOT following the Torah at all, and if they succeed in making you G-d forbid leave Torah, it will be mostly their fault and they will have to live with that for eternity. I am as “charedi” as they come; I don’t go anywhere without my hat and jacket, and I have taught autistic children. I have friends who I went to high school with who are autistic. Some people in my beis medrash were autistic too. There is a place in the Torah world for every kind of jew who wants to serve Hashem
