Do you think people treat you differently because you have a disability /condition?

I find some people treat me differently now I am unwell unfortunately,😢but i try not to dwell on this.

I think people can be quite patronising sometimes as well, either deliberately or by accident.

My partner has autism and people are rude and have said "why are you with him, when he has that" my reply was "well I'd choose him any day over a rude individual like yourself. There really is no need.

Have a good day.

There is no point in getting offended in my opinion. I get offended by someone having an intent to offend, not by somebody making a mistake.
In the adult world, I have never had anybody be intentionally nasty to me for having a condition. School was a different story but that is over and done with now, thankfully.
