HANDICAP/DISABILITY
The definition of the word 'disability' is complicated. Officially, a disability is any long-term physical or mental problem that makes it difficult for someone to participate in certain aspects of society. However, many people won’t view a depression or a burnout as a disability, even though these mental problems fall within the scope of the official definition of disability. The world was not made for people with disabilities; not for any disability. This is even included in the definition, but shouldn't it be possible to change that?
