Hi disabled community! I’m so sorry the megathread is late this week. I hope everyone’s new year is going well so far!
As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
I didnt used to do much outside of school/work and now that I am doing more, I’m remembering why I didn’t do much before.
Being disabled put so many limits on my life that I got so used to, I stopped noticing they were there because i never did anything. Now that my depression is better, I’m dealing with a body that just can’t do what everyone else’s can
