If someone tells you they suffer from a disability, please believe them.
There are many invisible disabilities affecting people's lives and wellbeing (both physical and mental), so diminishing and devaluing someone's suffering can cause severe trauma.
I myself am a person who suffers from certain things that cannot be seen, and many times even medical professionals did not believe me because I looked "fine."
Looking "fine" and being "fine" are worlds apart.
So if you're gonna do one thing today, let it be googling and reading about invisible disabilities for 5 minutes.
