I have not really thought this through…but, what about the stigma that it is the person’s own fault they are ill? I have had people tell me to “just pull yourself up by your bootstraps” or that it was my “choice” to be ill—I “just need to decide to stay better and stick with it.” Those irritate me the most. Who in the heck would choose to be like this?
