A thing I've never quite figured out how to navigate is what to do when the frame that works best for you personally is... politically difficult, because it is not the same as a frame that other people who are like you are asserting as The One Truth as part of demanding rights.
Examples for me include gender stuff, ADHD. I maintain that I am cis and do not have ADHD but that other people who have exactly my level of cisness and intrinsic-ADHDness are very welcome to self-describe otherwise and that both views are useful.
Unfortunately because the frame that people have adopted in order to get the rights and treatment they need is one which treats these things as intrinsic objective true immutable aspects of your identity, that can be tricky to navigate.
Generally one-on-one people are absolutely fine about this (if a bit sceptical), but talking about it in public is hard.
Practice helps
Somewhat, but there's a certain intrinsic difficulty to it unless everyone else practices too.
It's so tempting for me to state things in a passive, universal sense. A, I want to say what I feel the truth is, and B, I want people to relate to it. I fight this Reflex often when tweeting and it very often facilitates A and B.
I contend that people are far more often appreciative of descriptive first hand accounts of the frames I use to view the world, rather than prescriptive, invariably incomplete universalist ones.
Definitely feel this—a lot of people with my same mental illnesses are pissed they were "forced to adapt to normal society/behavior" but I personally am soooo grateful I was pushed to learn these skills/learn how to reign myself in when necessary
