A conflicting access need is when two or more disabled people have needs that it's hard to accommodate simultaneously in the same space (e.g., a service dog handler + severe dog allergy)

I have conflicting access needs with myself, suspect I'm not alone. What are some of yours?
[Food]

Because of MCAS, life is a lot more comfortable if I basically cook all my food from as close to scratch as possible, or buy Very Spendy Snacks

But my disabilities also cause fatigue, which means cooking is energy I don't have and also I'm on an extremely limited income
Also, I often need to wear braces to keep my hypermobile joint from partially dislocating

But the pressure from the braces can give me anything from a rash to flushing that keeps me awake all night. (Spoiler: so can injuries from not wearing the braces.)
