You are right, it isnt fair. The problem is that people only think of a disability as something that is physical in nature. Unusual walking, wheelchair, deformation of a limb. Things that you can see.
With certain issues, such as bipolar, people just think your 'moody'...you get upset at certain things. They think, I get pissed off sometimes, and I get happy about certain things.... I'm not bipolar so what makes you so different. They put themselves into our shoes without ever having a chance to walk a mile. It's rough, but it's the way we are taught.
Growing up, we are taught to find the thing that was different.
Red Circle, Red Circle, Red Circle, Blue Triangle.
The different one is the one we can SEE...but this is not always the case as we know.
