Hidden Disabilities — Quick Facts
What it means
A hidden (invisible) disability isn’t obvious to others. Needs are real even when symptoms aren’t visible.
Common examples
ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, chronic pain/fatigue, epilepsy, mental health, hearing/vision differences.
Why it matters
Validation, reasonable adjustments, and self-advocacy reduce barriers at school, work, and in the community.
