    This was so illuminating for me as someone who has not lived with any disability. Even just a few days of dealing with two small breaks in both my arms that had me relying on others for basic things showed me how much of a different daily existence that feels like when you need that assistance from friends and colleagues.

      Thank you very much! I always try to formulate these things carefully because they are general on one hand but every individual experience is still unique. If it helped expanding your perspective I would call it a success.

    Life indeed sucks Raf, but you sir do not.
    I can't say that I've had similar struggles as you, because I am not blind. But I have been treated different because I have autism. It's not so bad anymore, but it can be frustrating when people treat you different because you happen to have a developmental disorder. Thank you for making this video Raf. It was a good one.

      Thank you very much! Yes, all our experiences are different and unique. I tried to express mine in a way that may lead to some more general takes for everyone. I hope it worked.

    As an anecdote, Diabetes is becoming increasingly visible. A lot of people use app-controlled pumps that are small devices stickered to the arm. In the warm seasons they are easy to spot, if you're familiar with the technology.

      Oh yeah, I wonder if that changes how they are perceived by people who would otherwise not know of their condition.
