Why does everyone assume they can magically cure my lifelong illness? It's exhausting.

They want to feel helpful, which is different than selflessly helping.

These same people don’t actually help me if I need it, they can’t seem to deal with the reality of my disability.

If people want to help, there are so many ways to actually help them.

You don’t “help” a blind person by trying to sell them a random sham, you help them by asking them if you can do something for them.

Because people at their core just want to help feel like they're helping.
