Where Do I Begin?

Long story short, I had a Neonatal Level-Three stroke that caused me to have Diplegic Spastia the day after I was prematurely born. Long since comorbid with OCD/Anxiety (about 2001; not diagnosed until 2006), Depression (ibid.), ADD (2013), and IBS (2010-2011), my CP (as if it didn't make a pariah in of itself) and my other conditions have made me a pariah. I'm not fooled, either: I know that society is ableist, perhaps more so than it's ever been and in both covert and overt ways.
