I want to say thank you to you for this awesome essay. It's not too often that someone writes about ableist privilege when it comes to mental health.

All I get from the comments by those with privilege in the linked posts is that they're only willing to make accommodations for people to the extent that it doesn't harsh their fandom squee. The minute someone with a social anxiety issue brought on by a fandom fest airs that particular concern, all pretence of decency goes out of the window.
