Canberra Disability Review - Autumn 2022

2nd SEMESTER 2019: LOSS OF CONFIDENCE

My gradually gained disability confidence was unfortunately smashed in my second semester. One of my lecturers in this semester kept declining my adjustment requests as she did not understand or trust my Education Access Plan (EAP). She insisted I should learn not to rely on adjustments because I did not look like I had disability. By the end of this semester, my visual hypersensitivity became extremely severe due to my stress, which I felt was the end of my life.
