ok so ……. why is “you don’t need to disclose your entire medical history for your experiences as a nd/disabled/etc person to be valid” a controversial take
no seriously i mean this actually. people will list their entire diagnostic histories in their little carrds out of fear that they’ll post abt something and someone will come to them and say “hey you don’t list that you’re such and such, you can’t talk about this” as if you have the right to judge ppls experiences in the first place; if someone posts a vent abt their chronic pain and your first instinct is to like check their bio and see if they list that they’ve got a health condition somewhere that “validates” their vent you should probably stop worrying about other people and get therapy or something
this is ok to rb actually
