What is up with the Physically Disabled Superiority Complex!

Post Reply New Topic

Literally all the Guys in Wheelchairs at my day program treat me subhuman. I literally had one insisting I must have graduated with Special Diploma just because I am Autistic!

It's not just the physically disabled who say things like that. A lot of people say things like that.

Never saw or heard of it, but it sounds hypocritical for one disabled person to look down at another disabled person.

This guy sounds bitter to me. It's probably tough to see people walking around. I've noticed in that culture they work VERY hard to look like they don't need any help and they get mad if you do something you think is helpful to them. Which I can understand but it makes a lot them kind of nasty. Also even if you are injured like that it does not mean you understand other disabilities.

I think maybe they work really hard to overcome their disability & feel like you aren't trying to overcome yours. I'm NOT saying that you aren't trying your hardest but they cant relate to it.

I don't think these people have overcome anything and feel some sort of strange sense of "entitlement." People who have truly overcome their problems don't, in my experience, make fun of others.

My ex wasn't in a wheelchair but he felt I didn't deserve my grades and for how hard I worked because they had modified my school work so he told me they had dumbed it down. He didn't count my accomplishment because of the help I had gotten. He was pretty bitter so because he didn't get the same amount of help he got and he dropped out, bullying being the main reason, he felt I didn't deserve it either so he didn't count it. I think he was jealous and wanted everyone to live like him or else he thought it didn't count and think they just dumbed it down.
