Cripple is a slur
Its not for able bodied people to use i dont care if you think youre “crippled” by your mental illness, that word is not for you
Please spread this if you are able bodied
Hey @ my mutuals stop reblogging/making posts that use cripple to describe mental health
You arent crippled by anxiety, you arent crippled by paranoia, and you arent crippled by depression. Youre only allowed to use cripple if you’re physically disabled!
@ my fellow mentally ill folks: most of the time, the word you’re looking for is “debilitating” or “disabling”. you can get the point across that our mental disorders are a disability for us without using this specific slur.
