What is an Invisible Disability?

An Invisible disability is a disability or health condition that is not immediately obvious. It defies the stereotypes of what people might think a disabled person looks like.

It is crucial to emphasize that just because a disability cannot be seen, it does not mean it does not exist.

People with Invisible disabilities want to be treated with respect and as individuals—just like people with visible disabilities and the general population. Even though you cannot see evidence of a disability, the disability still exists.

This podcast aims to raise awareness about Invisible disabilities and provide guidance on how to seek help.

“Without goals and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination.” – Fitzhugh Dodson. One of my favourite quotes highlights the need to take control of your life.

Life is filled with the unexpected and you never know what could happen. It's important that you plan and take control of your life. No one should be in control of you. Do not look for validation in others. Validate yourself. you are enough and the only obstacle in your life, stopping you from becoming who you want to be, is yourself. 

The words you write or speak to others can leave a tremendous impact and create a lasting memory, either good or bad. So it's very important to choose them wisely. Be mindful of your words. Words you say without thinking and mean little to you may stick with someone else for a lifetime and alter their destiny. Watch your words and think before you speak. Put yourselves in their shoes because once the words come out of your mouth, you can't take them back. And even when you say sorry, the wounds your words created will still leave everlasting scars. 

Sometimes what we want is not what we need. The ability to see things for what they really are rather than what we want them to be, allows us to recognize the good and find peace in our decisions, progressing ourselves to the future that awaits us.

It's time to change your perspective.
