You might have heard the term "psychosocial disability" but what does it actually mean? 💜
Psychosocial disability refers to the impact a mental health condition has on a person's ability to participate in everyday life. Things like maintaining relationships, holding down work, managing daily tasks, or simply getting through the day.
It's not always visible. But it's very real and it deserves to be recognised, supported, and understood.
Some conditions that can lead to psychosocial disability include:
🌿 Anxiety and depression
🌿 Bipolar disorder
🌿 PTSD and trauma-related conditions
🌿 Schizophrenia and psychosis
🌿 Borderline Personality Disorder
If you or someone you love is living with one of these conditions, support is available - including through the NDIS. You don't have to navigate it alone.
