Happy international day of persons with disabilities. Don’t forget that invisible disabilities exist and don’t see them less than visible ones.
Invisible disabilities include:
- neurological disabilities (autism, ADHD, etc.)
- asthma
- diabetes
- chronic pain, such as fatigue
Representation matters. Disabled voices in STEM matter.

"But u were able to last week so why not today?"
"If u have meds, why aren't they making u better?"
"If you're in bed all day, doing something at night shouldn't be a problem."
"If all those specialists can't fix u maybe u need to see psych!"

The #DisabledInSTEM Mentorship Program has almost an equal number of applicants for mentees and mentors!
Just sad to see interest extremely low this year. I’m not sure how I could reach people better so please share within your networks! 💜
“If you were that sick you would be dead.”
“If it were that bad you would get help.”
“If you can post on social media you’re fine”.
Disabled people are constantly subjected to “if” statements from people who have no concept how bad it can get & how little help is available
