These three categories come from the [disability flag](https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/int-dis.html) which references those three categories that the flag represents for the disability community.
If someone can explain what is a psychic disability and what is a sensory disability along with some examples it would be greatly appreciated!~
In: Other
A psychic or mental disability is the related to The brain of the person, say it is not fully developed; or it has been damaged by accidents or trauma. Eg; a person with impartial brain development being unable to speak properly
Sensory disability is related to The five senses (Touch,smell, sight,hearing and tasting). So its not about the mental health; it could just be not being able to see or hear
I’d say a sensory disability something like being hearing impaired, vision impaired, or having anosmia.
A psychic disability might be PTSD or bipolar
Think of how two different people can experience the exact same event in wildly different ways.
This is the difference between sensation and perception. Consider how a song that makes one person weep may make their friend laugh.
Another way to think of this is colorblindness. I can pick up on subtly different hues that other people I’ve known couldn’t. Which is why I work in printing and they do not.
