  • What is Psychosocial Disability?

    NDIS Severe Psychosocial Disabilities

    Psychosocial disability is a popular term under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities that is used to describe the experience of people with impairments and participation restrictions related to mental health conditions. Psychosocial disability includes impairments like Severe schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or intellectual disability with high-risk behaviours that require intensive support for daily functioning and safety. 

    The term psychosocial disability is related to the ‘social consequences of disability’, the effects on someone’s ability to participate fully in life as a result of mental ill-health. Those affected are prevented from engaging in things like education, training, cultural activities, and achieving their goals and aspirations. Not everyone with a mental illness will have a level of impairment that will result in a psychosocial disability. It is also important to remember that there is a strong focus on a recovery orientation in mental health, as different levels of mental ill-health are variable and not permanent.
