Just testing to see if I can post now. How do you do, fellow kids and disabled users so inexperienced they may as well be kids?

    Would you mind clarifying what you mean by this?

    Would you mind clarifying what you mean by this?

    Disabled ppl often find it difficult to find work due to stigma, and fall behind their non-disabled peers in terms of experience and opportunities.

    Thanks for clarifying @Past User. :) That makes sense - just thought I'd check!

    Then why am I planning to kill myself by the end of the year if I don't have a fucking job if I'm so damn important?

    Hey @Past User , Welcome to The Mix! It's so great to have you here :)

    I can see how much you're hurting right now and I'm awfully sorry that you're feeling so low, to the point where you're even planning on ending your life.

    I disagree with what you're saying here. I don't think that disabled people are worthless and should die. I believe that everyone is worth their space in this world, disability or no disability.

    I'm curious as to why you feel like you're worthless and why you're feeling like you should just die? We want you here and we care about you.

    Someones always around if ever you'd like to talk or rant about your feelings and whatever going on for you.

    You're strong and you are worth SO much.

    Because I'm fucking ancient and 99.9% of my work experience is unpaid. That says to me I'm literally worthless.
