Walking Between Worlds: A Reflection on Disability and Social Isolation (part2)

The narrator describes feeling like a ghost in a world where they no longer fully belong, experiencing profound isolation after an accident or illness. Despite the innate social nature of humans and the importance of connection for well-being, they struggle to engage with others, feeling disconnected and unseen. The trauma has rewired their psyche, overshadowing their identity and making it difficult to feel sane in an increasingly insane world. The body's survival mechanisms have taken over, influencing their perceptions and actions.
