Passing as able-bodied is a toxic goal.⁣
⁣
For years I struggled to look ‘healthy’. I made hiding my chronic illnesses and disabilities a major focus of each day.⁣
⁣
I learned that I was treated differently if no one knew about my health.⁣
⁣
If I looked able, I was rewarded. ⁣
⁣
I was included.⁣
⁣
I was given opportunities that I thought I would lose if I revealed my conditions- and when I did finally start talking about diagnoses, using the mobility aids that let me thrive, and sharing my journey, I did lose. ⁣
⁣
I was too much of a risk.⁣
⁣
Having to make things accessible made me too high maintenance.⁣
⁣
And I didn’t question it at the time. I didn’t advocate for myself or others, or watch with gratitude as those who discriminated fell away from my life.⁣

I didn’t stop to see how much privilege my disabled body carried.
⁣
I felt shame. ⁣
⁣
I just wanted acceptance. I wanted to be able-bodied. And everyone else just seemed to want the same thing for me. Everyone seemed so invested in my ‘recovery’; I didn’t want to disappoint them.⁣
⁣
I didn’t see how hard I was working to ease the discomfort of able-bodied minds. I didn’t see that I was constantly posturing; fawning for acceptance and equality. ⁣
⁣
I didn’t see the ableism - both external and internalized.⁣
⁣
Instead, I learned to downplay things. ⁣
⁣
I learned to walk the line with my language. I learned that if I talked about ‘healing’ instead of chronic illness, and treated my mobility aids as progress points on the path back to a societal ‘normal’, I was an inspiration.⁣
⁣
A hero.⁣
⁣
I learned that if I embraced my body and accepted my disabilities; if I loved my mobility aids, my strategies to thrive, and my beautiful life as it is - I made people uncomfortable.⁣
⁣
It’s hard to rewire our choices. ⁣
⁣
There are days that I still catch myself trying so hard to be or act or pass as able-bodied.
⁣
But most days I am consciously choosing discomfort. ⁣
⁣
Because growth lies in discomfort.⁣
Your growth.⁣
Mine.⁣
⁣
And when we choose to grow, change is never far behind.⁣
