You know, hanging out on Tumblr, at the intersection of the Disability* and Queer/LGBTQ communities. I see so many posts about tips for surviving abuse and gaslighting from your family, that I often feel a sense of survivor's guilt, because I can not relate. My parents were supportive of each other, and of me.
*(An aside, but another connection between Disability and Queer identities: Did you know that one of the most accepted "therapies" for autism: "Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA)," is just rebranded Gay Conversion Therapy, complete with electric shock, applied to little kids? )
