Without support and diagnosis, fibromyalgia can make life unmanageable.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Fibromyalgia doesn\u2019t make the person instantly eligible for the NDIS. To qualify for the NDIS, you need to be living with a permanent and a severe disability which has been diagnosed by an expert medical doctor. However as fibromyalgia coexists with a wide range of other severe mental and physical disabilities, it\u2019s quite possible that you will be able to get NDIS funding.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ba4d339 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ba4d339\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/disable-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048 wp-image-3313\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/disable-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/disable-1-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/disable-1-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/disable-1-768x402.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-53cf8aed elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"53cf8aed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">NDIS Psychosocial Disability Eligibility<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a02db23 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7a02db23\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Psychosocial disability is the term used for people with certain disabilities caused from a mental health issue.
