RESPECT THEIR EXISTANCE

A family of short messages for the Zero Toxic project focusing on not use a person's difficulties by disrespecting their existance

YOU DON'T HAVE ANY EXCUSE TO DISRUPT A PERSON WITH HIDDEN DIFFERENCES EXISTENCE

A person's difficulties or disability is not a competition

A person that makes many adjustments to deal with situations with most people take for granted longer. With that in mind, you do not have the right to disrupt their ability to function in society. This includes accessing supermarket deals by getting on and off public transport

YOU CAN'T PAINT EVERYONE THE SAME BRUSH

A person's difficulties are not suspicious or a bad personality

A reminder that they have limitations of abilities and have a coping mechanism limitation. Their experiences are not a choice or option, so think twice and not reject or exclude a person with disabilities or difficulty negatively without getting to know them.

HANDS OFF 

Keep your hands off a person's disabilities or difficulties and stop disrupting their lives

You are not been authorised to physically abuse or assault in person with a disability or difficulties. Their place in society is not the problem, you are. So stop attacking and assaulting a person with hidden differences. They have the right to exist and function in society whether you like it or not.

STOP PLAYING

A person's difficulties or disabilities are not in the form of entertainment.

It is not a comedy so stop making fun of a person's difficulties or disabilities how in how you perceive them. Stop causing physically abusive pranks, not laugh at them & not make constant rude staring

STOP CREATING ENEMIES OUT OF A PERSON'S DIFFICULTIES

There is no excuse for you to dislike or hate any person with difficulties or disabilities. Stop bothering them and let them get on with their lives.

NO SMART SENSES IF YOU WRONGLY IGNORE ANY TOXIC BEHAVIOUR THAT OCCURS TOWARDS A PERSON'S DIFFICULTIES.

Any person with disabilities or with hidden difficulties is a member of society. So if you observe incidents and do nothing and you don't value any disabilities or difficulties and you are part of the problem. Take responsibility and report any incidents a person with disabilities or difficulties faces to the police or any nearby official or report on the phone or online away from the incident.

A PERSON'S DIFFICULTIES DO NOT DISAPPEAR LIKE MAGIC.

Think twice before you make unrealistic expectations or demands.

Don't patronise a person with differences with unhelpful suggestions which false assumptions that difficulties would disappear with physical fitness and medical treatment alone.

STOP PUNISHING A PERSON'S DIFFICULTIES 

You have no business to disrupt or cause harm towards a person's disability or difficulties when they are using items or tools to maintain their ability to function. This includes using headphones or ear plug in public places or making and referring notes.

You have no basis to disrupt a person's ability to function.

STOP RUINING A PERSON'S WITH HIDDEN DIFFERENCES LIVES

It's not about ignoring and it goes away. Any kind of toxic attitudes and hatred can cause affect a person's circumstances negatively such as work education relationships with friends family and intimate partners. It can harm their mental health and well-being and it could cause harm to a person's self-worth.

So think twice before even considering mistreating a person.
