It's not a choice if I don't have a choice.

So you're a compatibilist. So long as you aren't being hindered or coerced you have freewill? Cause if that's not what you're saying then you're using autonomous in two different ways here. To autonomously function simply means to function without interference, but to be autonomous in an incompatibilist sense means more than that.
