		Not all people who have had a mental or emotional disability have it forever or to the same degree all the time.
		However, there is indication that a general preference is moving towards acceptance of "disability" as most people involved in independent living and disability rights use that term as an identifying characteristic.
		As a general rule, the preference is to emphasize "people..." or "a person with a disability." The person is primary and the disability secondary.

		People with disabilities, having been described by their medical diagnoses all their lives, often must convince themselves that they are capable and have potential for success.
