I know that I’ve been using the #DoctorsAreDickheads hashtag a lot, but please understand.
There is a HORRIBLE problem in the medical community, and I have firsthand experience on the damage it does to patients. 1/3
I have post traumatic stress disorder due in large part to how doctors have treated me. I am living with mental AND physical pain, reminders of that mistreatment, every single day. We are not disgruntled customers complaining about a lack of ice. #DoctorsAreDickheads 2/3
We are patients with no other choice but to put our lives in other peoples’ hands, and in many of our cases, they were not handled with care, and we suffer because of it.
If you took offense before attempting understanding, you STILL aren’t listening.
#DoctorsAreDickheads 3/3

As we battle the ever present “what about personal responsibility?!” healthcare argument, I’m here to tell you: it doesn’t matter.

I’m disabled. I didn’t become that way by my own hand - it was entirely an accident, and I was a child doing child things. But here’s the thing: 1/7
That does not make me more worthy of accessible care.

Whether an illness or injury was caused by genetics, accidents, heroism, alcoholism, drug abuse, poor eating habits, lack of exercise, it literally does not matter.

Human beings deserve to get care when they are ill. 2/7
EVERYONE deserves care when they are ill, and I do not care if they are someone working 80 hours a week to make ends-meet, someone living under the poverty line on disability benefits, or rich enough to take care of it even at its current ridiculous price - EVERYONE. 3/7

Okay, I’m gonna give a quick story time.
I feel that some of you are still operating under the pretense that “I’ll probably survive COVID, so I don’t have to worry.”
You do.
Because the fact that fully healthy, abled, young individuals have died as well aside, you are 1/7
forgetting the fact that illnesses don’t leave without leaving things behind.

I know this firsthand.

I had pertussis 8 years ago, when I was 18. My immune system was very poor at the time (and remains so).

Prior to getting pertussis, my lungs were VERY strong. 2/7
I was a choir student from when I began school until I finished. A soprano who trained and competed whose preference was opera. I was also in a band and sang acoustic pop punk covers, almost every weekend. I had also been an avid swimmer most of my life. Once the weather 3/7

Friends, propaganda has sprung to using misleading statistics as per usual, so as an ex-sales associate, let me put it in perspective for you.

My mother in law’s conservative radio show is trying to downplay COVID by stating that the death rate in NYC is ONLY .01% 1/4
Sounds small, right?

NYC has a population of 8,398,748 people.

.01% of that number?

About 840.

That is 840 people, dead. 840 people with families, friends, memories, dreams, futures that were torn from them.

If you hear statistical propaganda, please do the math. 2/4
It’s a common trick to try to present percentages in a dismissive fashion because it seems smaller.

In sales, we’re taught to talk in money, because $100 off $1000 sounds a lot sweeter than 10%.

Don’t be fooled - these numbers are NOT small.

And even if they were? 3/4

I live in an area that is pretty much a heroin hot spot. We’ve had 4 (if not more since I last saw reported) overdose deaths during this time. And every single comment from locals on the matter has been nothing short of heartless. 1/6
As a disabled person, I’m not new to the cruelty of human beings. I know exactly how shitty people can and will be to each other in any given circumstance. But this is just too obscene for me to deal with. This is HARD. Quarantine, COVID, this situation is hard for EVERYONE. 2/6
Imagine how hard it is for those who were already battling such terrible demons. Imagine losing your support lines and being forced to be alone with nothing but your pained mind. This is one of the worst things that could’ve happened to those in recovery 3/6

From reading @coffeespoonie’s saga on the inaccessibility of Uber drivers refusing to follow the law, one of the hottest takes I’ve seen so far is “you should have to identify yourself as disabled before using any service.”

No. We are not doing this. Here’s why. 1/6
Abled people enjoy ignorant bliss in the form of “nobody would willingly discriminate against disabled people”, but it happens. Every. Single. Day. This is our lives. Why would you suggest that disabled people sign themselves up to be discriminated against ahead of time? 2/6
This is why:

Whether it’s conscious or subconscious, you do not see disabled people as people. You would rather we not exist in society with other people. You’re “fine with us being disabled” (as though we had a choice) but you want that kept far away from you. 3/6

CN // Medical Abuse

Just read an extremely disturbing and triggering article about hospital staff creating a miniature “Wall of Shame” based on patients CONFIDENTIAL MEDICAL RECORDS, making fun of disabilities that they found funny for some reason. 1/5
This was triggering because I have an “embarrassing” disability. I’m one of those people. And I already have an extreme aversion to hospitals and medical facilities (to the point where I have almost died because I refused to go in for care due to such extreme anxiety). 2/5
To read something like that reminds me how little people think of disabled people, like me. Reminds me that no matter where I go, I will always be mocked, even by those I am entrusting my care to. People who do not have to wake up every day facing the hell that I face. 3/5
