Mental well-being is an important part of living a healthy, productive life. Unfortunately, many individuals experience barriers that prevent them from achieving optimal mental health. Fortunately, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and mental health services are available to help individuals overcome these obstacles.
The NDIS provides people with a disability, mental illness, or acquired brain injury access to support for their individual needs. This includes funding for psychological therapy and community-based support such as group activities and social clubs. The NDIS also funds equipment such as wheelchairs and hearing aids which can help those with physical disabilities access activities they may not otherwise be able to participate in due to mobility issues.
NDIS and Mental health services include counseling, psychiatric care, medication management, and case management, amongst others. These services provide people with assistance in managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other conditions that affect their well-being.
