    The worse part is when you get so good at coping that others don’t see the work that goes in just to function in a society built to your disadvantage.

      Ugh, I hate that! Thank you for putting that into words. It’s always been this vague frustration that I could never quite explain to people.

      Like, if all the hard work and progress I’ve made only goes so far as to rule out any sympathy or benefit of the doubt whenever my obstacles become insurmountable, then I guess I’ll just fuck off and not even try anymore…
