Hi! Person with a severe TBI that had to relearn to walk, balance in an elevator, read, etc here. There are absolutely people who said ableist stuff like that to me. Some people just really suck.

I’m sorry to hear that. I had a “mild” TBI and I felt like I had to beg for help when I was struggling with my issues. I’m sorry to hear it was also unsupportive for you
