Advocating for everyone but struggling to speak up for oneself
Original: Das Komische an mir: Für andere lege ich mich mit Gott und der Welt an. Ich recherchiere, ich schreibe, ich streite mich
A German-language post is drawing attention for its candid reflection on a common asymmetry: fighting tirelessly for others — researching, writing, and confronting authorities, parties and ministers over injustices — while falling silent when it comes to one's own needs. The author describes the strange contrast of being an immediate defender of anyone treated unfairly, yet going quiet when the same treatment lands on them, a sentiment many readers with similar experiences are resonating with.
Why now: The relatable confession about self-advocacy being harder than advocating for others strikes a chord with people who share the experience.
