Ok let's bypass the cat for a moment.....talking about truth 1 and truth 2... Most of us choose the consensus truth.....your problem I think is there is no consensus in this scenario. In part because no one can be truly aware of the inner workings of your mind. If you believe us you are ill if you believe the pdocs you are a fraud...the pdocs outrank us but there are more of us and we know how to spot a fraud as well because we have street cred. Thus no clear consensus.

Which world would you prefer?...If the disability is all that's stopping you from feeling comfortable why not go to work then?

Now if you can't go to work I would argue that you are in fact disabled in some way whether that is due to truth 1 or truth 2. Thus you are not hurting the nameless strangers because you are not capable of work. Many people are happy to support those who cannot work..I routinely donate to the food bank to help those who are struggling for whatever reason. Are some of those people getting food because they have spent all their money on superfluous things....yes but they still have no money and are hungry I want them to eat. So rule the nameless strangers out of your decision because they are not being hurt.
