The physical aspect of your body is not the only aspect that gets to experience conditions and illnesses. This can also be observed in your mental state. The only difference is at times, you cannot see it and there are no physical manifestations of this sickness. But sooner or later, you might be able to observe changes in the physicality of a person because of a mental condition.
Effects that can be expected include the changes in behavior. If the condition gravely affects the person, they might not act normal towards others and often think to themselves. Changes in their mind and mental capacities would be evident as well. There are times when they might become adults with intellectual disabilities which could provide disadvantages to the patient.
Several causes create these things to happen to someone. At times, this could be an inborn condition and the only way for cure is to constantly submit for treatment.

As someone who converses with them, it is also necessary that you listen and understand what they are saying. Some of those with disabilities have difficulty in speaking or do not communicate that well at all. But when they do other things that usually involves their skills, they could perfectly do it.
