You are under no obligation to look and act like anyone else, to be "normal".
Be considerate, be kind, don't harm others...
But being "weird" is not inconsiderate, and it's not harmful.

@hellomiakoda My weirdness has scared strangers. In the fear of the strangers, I was denied medical care. How do I overcome this denial of care, when I have not done any harm, but the harm is from neglect and ignorance of others who reject me for being "weird".

I have not found better medical care than the one doctor who passed away, and my care passed to this facility who denied me care for I was "scaring" the other patients with my unusualness.

Harm happened via ignorance + neglect.
