Invisible Disabilities

Invisible Disabilities

Earlier this month, a teen drove against traffic and killed one in the process. It later turned out that the teen model has ADHD and was on prescription medicine to manage her condition. Occupational Therapist Teoh Jouyin shared her views on invisible disability on her Facebook page, calling for compassion rather than anger and condemnation alone. Her post went viral, with hundreds of shares, likes and comments. She joins us today to speak about invisible disabilities.
