No problems, it was badly worded I admit.

I've been called lazy too many times to count. Even a psych nurse, when I told her how I just can't get myself started cleaning the house sometimes, responded, "You can if you make yourself." This from a mental health professional! This was decades ago, and I hope knowledge has progressed since 1984, when that happened.

Same here, except I think people make that assumption every day, and also my case manager at a disability employment agency said something very similar. I was just a bit stunned at what he said, but when I told my psychologist later that week, i burst into tears.
