So... if you don't understand someone else's reasons for doing something, you assume they aren't being honest with you?

I feel you are getting somewhere with this train of thought, so far I've replied a few people on this thread that seems to think this way and project this need of having a camera on because they don't understand how that can negatively affect others and assume people are being dishonest.
- kayodelycaon 5y agoHaving a disability that isn't visible, I deal with this problem all the time. The underlying issue is thinking of other's behavior as if it it was own behavior and then determine the other person's motivates from that assumption. If you don't understand someone else, you'll assume their reasons for a specific thing are the same as if you were doing that thing. Example: I take more days off than I have PTO for. Conclusion: I'm claiming to have a disability to get to have more vacation days. Reality: I've gone six months without any kind of vacation and many of my weekends spent barely recovering from work. My disability has taken so much from me that I find it hard to justify staying alive. When I get back to work, people ask how my vacation was.
