@TAB @Former-Member @MDT @Zoe7
I'm applying for the NDIS, for mental health. I got rejected now it's going through a review so I can get an advocate...that worries me so much, I can't even shower myself. Mr Angels does most of the housework and my son T is my full time carer, but I need a support worker my family are exhausted.

Re: Self Harm

Try not to worry perhaps

Re: Self Harm
I'm so sorry to hear that @Angels333. I can understand why things feel challenging at the moment while you wait for the support you need and deserve. I'm sure you're already onto it, but I came across this if it's of any help https://disabilityadvocacyfinder.dss.gov.au/disability/ndap/. From some of my experiences with NDIS, getting an occupational therapist to complete a functional capacity assessment can strengthen a NDIS application, along with as many support letters as possible. I recognise it's such a lengthy process for people. Hopefully you have someone helping you with this journey.

Re: Self Harm
Lol @TAB , 7am... it's quite something, then a midday nap... I was sober from April until two weeks ago. I did the whole detox thing withdrew with medical assistance. Now I'm on the roller-coaster again, I even attended an AA meeting on Thursday morning, didn't last 24 hrs.
God my friend, I'm glad you understand xx
