Hidden disabilities....yet again - NOT amateur radio

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.

Hidden disabilities - NOT amateur radio

Since my stroke in 2013 I have been even more aware than ever that many people suffer in silence and many people are totally unaware of the hidden disabilities these people have to live with daily.

I bet many we meet in the street have some sort of inner pain: it could be a physical or mental illness, a family breakup, death or whatever. As the saying goes "never ever judge a book by its cover".

Often the people we come across are suffering inside. Never judge by what you see. Everyone has their story and what you see on the outside may very well not be the whole story.
