some people who are ill and/or disabled CANNOT DO WHATEVER THEY SET THEIR MIND ON! some people are LIMITED by their bodies and their health and they are UNABLE to “"just choose”“ to do something! you can’t STOP being disabled by DECIDING to have a ”“good attitude”“! I am PREVENTED from doing whatever I want because I am D I S A B L E D!!
I would super appreciate it if healthy/abled people reblogged this post, because when people say these things it is so harmful to disabled, chronically ill, and mentally ill people
also! saying “I can’t do this because im disabled” is NOT “negative self-talk” or a “bad attitude”!!
THIS FOREVER. It’s toxic and untrue enough to tell healthy/conventionally abled people that they can have whatever “if they just set their minds to it” or “just work hard enough.” Because, sorry, no, you’re not the only factor in the situation. But for someone with additional issues, it’s downright cruel and stupid. Don’t be cruel and stupid.
