heya @chibam, hmm I can understand why some people might not want to use government funding, and thank you for sharing that about yourself.
Using the NDIS or any form of government support is a right that we all have. I've had periods of my life where I was totally dependent on it! I'm so grateful that it was available to me then. And a lot of us are here to learn how we can actually utilise the NDIS for it's purpose - to help even the playing field for those of us who need some extra support.
As I say, @Former-Member , it's difficult to see the point in chasing govt. funding if you can't find anything meaningful to spend it on. If I had a use for it, I would probably chase it, depending on how much I expected the overall cost to be.
It's just hard, you know, when you haven't been very useful to society, and the rest of the world isn't very shy about letting you know what a burden/disappointment you are to them. I just got another sting of that this afternoon. It never gets any easier.
