Me: Made a thread about how people don't understand hyperacusis and give advice that obviously I've already tried.

This person only a few tweets into the thread:

I only tweeted this because, like it or not, this is the general population's reaction to me talking about hyperacusis.

Similar replies happened when there was the whole "not clapping" article regarding Cambridge.

They're so quick to label disabilities as not real disabilities.

It's important to remember this when people may ask why we've never talked about this before, or why it's not talked about a lot.
