Hmm. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Certain mental health conditions are recognised as disabilities in the UK, and the people affected are entitled to support at work [1]. Still, I agree that it doesn't exempt one for their actions. I just don't think it's always binary like that, especially for chronic conditions that can be improved but not solved.

i'm not saying that flexibility and support for those suffering is a bad thing by any means, i'm just saying that there's a massive difference between "i have anxiety, deal with it" and "sorry i struggle with [thing] because of anxiety, but i'm working on it and support in the form of x would help me achieve y in the meantime"
