In the past i begged for people's attention and love. Faking a personality and hiding everything i am, trying to win the prize of people's tolerance. It made me hate myself all the more since i had to work hard for it, it means i am naturally defective, ugly and disgusting. I also felt guilty for trying to make people like a disabled person
I still mask but not for people's attention and love, just to survive and not get bullied. I like myself now, all on my own.
And i know the ableist part of the human psyche is there and i dont want to be an inspiration or someone who has to prove their worth to someone in order to break that barrier. I am not out to change anyone. I will just leave people alone with their inner ableism.
