Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I just think it's interesting. It's thought processes like this that creates treatments for said disabilities.

Oh definitely, thinking outside the box is how we develop the accommodations we need to thrive.

But the idea that there is the potential for a "cure" or 100% treatment (at this moment in time) if we just shift our perspective is damaging.

It leads to situations where bosses ask why you still need accommodations when you're on medication, because they wrongly assume the medication cures you fully.
