Hey list members, I am a partially blind person, I can manage most of the chores at my own. People don't get easily that I am visually impaired person. But this is true that I hide my disability, for instance, on the dining table I pretent that I don't like sweets in order to avoid the embarrassment of asking where is the sweet kept on the table. I avoid social functions just to make sure that no one is knowing the magnitude of my vision condition. I am unable to become very social, thinking that people will not like me on the account of my disability. In order to hide my disability, I have to secrify a lot! I hide my disability just because of the matter of the fact that in my society disabled people are looked with pity, and no one will respect me and my parants after knowing that I am disabled person. Though I am central government employee, still people will doubt on my ability and education, they will say that he got the job under quota reserved for handicapped persons. Therefore till now, I am hiding my disability wherever possible. Kindly suggest me how to live a good life with the disability with full confidence. . I always think that why it happened to me, while whole world is enjoying with their sight. When I think of future married life, I am clueless that how will I manage children and all, their education and then their marriage etc. I feel life is useless with out sight. Kindly help me in coming out from this liquidating attitude.
