Something’s not right

NDIS info needed

NDIS info needed

My therapist has been seeing me as part of a charitable organization, but tonight he told me he is leaving the group to go full-time into private counselling services at the end of November. My choices now are to start over again with a new counsellor or see him privately at $150 an hour, which is impossible for me. Then he told me that the NDIS funds counselling sessions and perhaps it's something I could look into. I'm kind of numb right now, dazed, I tried to look at their page but not much is going in, it's too much info hitting me all at once. Could someone tell me where to look it up, provide a direct link or tell me even if it's possible.

To be honest, I would rather give all hope up. I told him I would not see anyone else, he's my eighth counsellor of which him and my last therapist were any good. He tried to convince me to keep trying with whoever I can get help from, to accept a new counsellor from the charity. I am 55, maybe I just need to accept that I will never get any better, never will be happy, and get on with it. Every time I think life has given me a chance to fix things, to be happy, it gets taken away. I'm done. I'm going to see if this NDIS thing can help and if it won't I am done. I'm too tired, too numb to care or keep going on.

Sssoooo, if anyone knows about this NDIS thingy, let me know.

@eth ok, one step, see shrink.

Btw, saw a youtube video today about aspergers in women, with only a couple of exceptions, I fit into everything. Maybe I should see a shrink cause I might be wrong about the DID, or maybe I have a mix of issues.

Thanks @Shaz51 but I have tried before but I can't even get on Centrelink disability because I can do basic daily functions without help

Hi @Lemonjuice, I saw that you think you have DID if you have any questions about it I can try to help answer them for you
