Oh yes, seeing myself as disabled was this HUGE thing for me: I have chronic fatigue syndrome, so how I feel and what I can do at any given moment is no worse than how an able bodied person would feel with say a nasty virus, the issue is that I feel that way all the time. And I'm currently looking into mobility aids and still find myself thinking "But I can't use a wheelchair or a scooter! Those are for really disabled people." etc.
