Sorry to go on and on about this.
All my waking time I feel giddy and exhausted and I've been this way for 6.5 years since my stroke in 2013. My voice is very bad and I often have to repeat myself as I find it hard to be understood. There must be millions of people who are walking around with disabilities that others cannot see.
What I am concerned about is judging people by what you think they are like. How people appear is often not a guide to how they really are. Yes, a few may be faking it, but the vast majority are genuine.
All I am urging, yet again, is do not judge people by what you see. If you are physically disabled and use a wheelchair it is pretty obvious, likewise if you are blind. If you are like me or have a mental illness it is often far from obvious to other people.

Thank you.
For being someone brave enough to be honest and open about your affliction and the reactions of those around us.
Although my problem (severe depression) is of another order, I'm not able to be open about it.
I look okay, so...
People like you are hopefully paving the way to a better society, and for that I salute you.
Best wishes for the holidays,
Vic
