support cognitively disabled voices with limited understanding of ableism.

support cognitively disabled voices who don't notice when they're being discriminated against.

support cognitively disabled voices who want to be told when they're being discriminated against, and support cognitively disabled voices who don't want to know. support cognitively disabled voices who only want to know if they ask.

support cognitively disabled voices who notice that they're being treated differently, but can't communicate how they feel about it.

support cognitively disabled voices who do understand and notice, but others incorrectly assume they don't.

support cognitively disabled voices who don't know ableism exists at all.

equal rights and treatment shouldn't only be available to those who understand it and can fight for it. don't leave cognitively disabled people behind.

my life would be easier if society was more accessible... but i would still be disabled. what about that is so hard to grasp?

some people's disabilities may be more based in how society treats disability, but personally, i would always have debilitating symptoms.

no amount of equal access can 100% solve all debilitating symptoms for all people.

the best pain management technique is undeniably prevention.

so... you should probably use your mobility aids before it gets bad, not just after.

just saying.

to be visibly disabled is to be obviously unwelcome in every room you enter.

if you can physically get through the door.

i don't just want to be physically allowed.

i want my presence to be valued and included as well.

is that so much to ask?
