There is rampid discrimination against anyone who appears "not normal," unfortunately. It could take the form of giving that person less hours, trying to make them quit, isolating them from the public or co-workers, treating them condescendingly.

Having a mental illness (especially mental illnesses that affect social skills) correlates with a lower earning potential. It doesn't doom us, but it is good we remain cognizant of our potential and limitations and goals and roadbumps.
