Why it worked

The post resonated with viewers by highlighting the common and frustrating experience of not being taken seriously when dealing with invisible disabilities, particularly in professional or bureaucratic settings. The use of relatable scenarios and a clear narrative arc likely contributed to its shareability.

Summary

The post depicts a person struggling with being perceived as disabled and unable to work full-time, despite seeking help from various professionals like a school nurse, BUP (child and adolescent psychiatry), and a doctor. The final slides show the person presenting proof of their disability and desire to work part-time, only to be dismissed by someone who tells them they are not disabled and should go to work.

Dealing with the disability itself is actually easier than dealing with not being taken seriously. Though it’s only invisible to the office that’s supposed to help me financially, everyone else in my life can see it. WHEN THE DOCTOR IS TAKING YOU SERIOUSLY THEN YOU KNOW IT’S BAD!!!!#försäkringskassan #autism #invisibledisabilities #comic
