PTSD

PTSD or Post-Truss Stress Disorder is the anxiety most of the British public suffered from after the catastrophically incompetent 44-day reign of Liz Truss as Prime Minister. Common symptoms include people having their homes repossessed, going without food, and their grandchildren being saddled with an £8 trillion National Debt.

dabled

A portmanteau for 'Differently-abled'. It's a less discriminatory term than 'Disabled' because the prefix 'Dis' in Latin means 'apart' and it has negative connotations when it comes to ability. And it's more concise than'Differently-abled' which isn't catching on because it's too much of a mouthful. Dabled is a short and snappy word to describe people who are still 'able' to do things but with abilities that may be different from our own. For example, many people with no fingers or even hands can still use a fork to eat. So they are not DISABLED to use the fork per se; they just use their limbs DIFFERENTLY to achieve the same result.
