People seem to view the word "disability" as having a lot of different meanings. What does it mean to you to have a disability?
not to be able to perform at full capacity compared to an average person
I guess that could mean either physically or mentally, right? Do you think that it makes a person unique in some way?
yes, i think it does
I agree, but a lot of medical institutions feel like those with disabilities need to be "fixed," which is kinda sad in a way.
i guess they used to "institutionalize" but I don't know if they do it  today
Yeah I haven't heard much about the old mental hospital either. Since the 1970s, the conversation has really changed people's perception and the public discourse.
hopefully the stigma decreases and people with disabilities are accepted more
