Yesterday I was at a health evaluation for a driver’s license. Everything went well with my physical health, but at questioning, my autism was bought up. I was accused of needing help with learning in primary school (despite of my grades, that were usually B (I know, I’m lazy)) and now I need a psychological evaluation.

that… doesn’t sound like a friend. I’m sorry for you
He isn’t a bad person, he just inflated his ego (probably just temporarly).
