One thing that adds to mental health stigma is people demanding that we need special treatment, when we are every bit as able-bodied as a Neuro-typical.

I like Lisa, but this adds to #stigma. I dislike excuses. I don’t get to make them. No one does. #mentalHealth

More proof!

@BipolarBattle, how do you feel about people utilizing their disability to sue?

do you think this empowers others to believe that you can raise your children?

Seriously. 👇 is NOT something to celebrate. #MentalHealth @MHChat @Autism

I used a small account to confront the individual, but he blocked, because he is more interested in free money than helping and the stigma on disabilities.

I am livid.

I fight each and every day to end preconceptions, misconceptions, and discrimination.

I really have no idea why anyone thinks they need an excuse, when I get up each and every day, take more medication than most people do in a lifetime, and I get things done.

I do not want people like this individual to represent me, in anyway.

Let me be perfectly clear, I do not need a lawyer or a quart room to balance out the negatives that came with my genetics, because they aren’t negatives, they make me strong, and they make me a survivor.

same day my podcast came out on the stigma of diagnosis, this man proves 5/

Just how little people think of us, and how little we think of ourselves.

#keepTalkingMH.

I am done with Twitter for today.

I hope all of the people who are thriving and proving the world wrong with success despite their disabilities is proud of themselves.
