Worse than indifference — "kind" words. Every day, people with disabilities hear dozens of phrases: "You're such a hero", "Get well soon", "You just don't believe in yourself", "I'll pray for you" 😟
They sound supportive, but often they're the opposite — they place an extra emotional burden on the person, instead of meeting them where they are. Real support is asking, listening, and following the person's lead.
