Mental health struggles are hugely impactful for anyone, regardless of their circumstances. Some people, experience such serious and prolonged mental illness that it will likely affect them and how they interact with society for life.  This is known as a psychosocial disability. Although these individuals are entitled to an NDIS plan in many instances, joining the NDIS and getting the right plan is often a major challenge.
