I’m struggling with this today. Not particularly with not being disabled, but with how much of the world seems open to those who are not disabled.

I watch my friends succeed in doing things I will never be able to do. Get that job that pays them well enough to get that house, that I wouldn’t even be able to consider with the job. As you know even if I had the money to get the house it wouldn’t be accessible to me, or I would have to pay to make it so.

I have to check every level of life for its accessibility and it often fails. And I guess today that’s just draining me.

I just want to be able to live my life.

So if I’m off with you when you give me good news. I apologise. I tried not to be. I am incredibly happy for you and the success you have found. I’m just still stuck arguing for my basic rights on a day-to-day basis. Some days it feels like I will never get anywhere near what you have and I am envious.
