Fired today after disclosing my disability

Last week I disclosed my autism at work (to ask for accommodations after a year of struggling to work without accommodations). Today, I was fired. I’m not even sure what to do with that. My healthcare, etc are all tied to my employer so I’ve now lost all of my support services. I think I could handle being told I’m bad at my job, but it feels devastating to be fired for who I am. I’m not sure what to do next. But I’m supposed to move in a month and now that’s in jeopardy. I’m exhausted and I wish I was more than the value I provide on the job market. Sorry to complain but I feel like I’m about to explode and I have no where else to get it off my chest.
