"Paradox of the responsible adult":
advocate or companion says exactly same as patient: former listened to, latter barely acknowledged/too articulate to need help or support.

Suddenly begins to feel like invalidated, ignored, infantilised,or spoken-at by professionals - irrespective of needs, urgency, complexity, education, age, or life experience.
Always the same issue with advocacy and experiencing same 'paradox of the responsible adult', no matter how old or educated.

the Johnson Paradox

The Johnson Paradox is a phenomenon where a group of people love and support an individual, despite that individual lying repeatedly and showing the utmost corruption and hypocrisy in their daily life.

The individual might also be completely in contempt of their supporters and morally destitute, but the supporters cannot see the individual for what they are and support them regardless.
Reasonable Person 1: "So he lied to everyone and was forced out of office by his own party, yet when he returned yesterday, he was met with thunderous applause?"
Reasonable Person 2: "It's the Johnson Paradox in effect."
