I’m curious on what others think
Do you class mental illness as a disability and why
I would say yes. If it stops/hinders you from doing daily activities then yeah. I mean, another way of referring to ‘mental illness’ would be ‘mental disability’ so there’s that.
But then agin dosent depends how severe it is
Physical disability also has degrees/percentages. Fe, gluten intolerance is classified as 5% disability in Norway.
Technically. Just had a google and looking from the UK law’s view, the mental illness needs to be ‘substantial’/long-term to count as a disability.
Those are 2 different things.
