Disability and Accessibility @beehaw.org ev1lchris @lemm.ee SSDI and living in SE Asia
Does anyone else live in South East Asia while collecting SSDI?

Disability and Accessibility @beehaw.org ev1lchris @lemm.ee Disability for Mental Health Issues
I get disability for Major Depression and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Without something like Lexapro I can turn into kind of a wreck. Even suicidal or suffering from panic attacks.
Does anyone ever feel like this isn't a real disability? I mean, it's not like I'm in a wheelchair. Sometimes I feel like I am cheating.
But there are others out there like myself. There has to be.

Disability and Accessibility @beehaw.org ExtremeDullard @lemmy.sdf.org The indignity...
So it's finally happened.
I went to the sauna after my swim at the municipal swimming pool, and as always I was super careful because I don't have great balance and the floor is always slippery in there.

3 or 4 of them dudes got up to help and scraped me off the floor. No real harm done, but my ego is still bruised 6 hours later. I just wanted to vent a bit. Sorry...
