How to Determine if You’re Eligible for SDA Under the NDIS
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is a critical support under the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) for individuals with extreme functional impairments or very high support needs. SDA provides funding for specially designed housing that enables participants to live more independently and access necessary supports. To determine if you are eligible for SDA, it is essential to work closely with an NDIS coordinator and an NDIS support provider who can guide you through the process.

Why Do Infections of the Brain Only Make People Meaner?
The fact that on average the entire population of the globe has become more angry, unfriendly, and generally just bigger assholes is one aspect of the Covid-19 epidemic that is less remarked upon and studied then it should be. It is now well known that Covid-19 does enter into and replicate in the brains of infected animals, including humans, and that this causes inflammation and damage to nerve cells and can impact behavior in subtle and not so subtle ways. To take just on example from the animal kingdom when laboratory mice are infected with some strains of Covid-19 at a high enough inoculum level they develop a strange stunted gait or hiccup in the way they walk. Almost like they are trying to hop/jump instead of walk but somehow the signals for both are becoming mixed up in their brains resulting in a very bizarre, but indicative behavior. Those that display this behavior (almost) always die soon after. It is a very disturbing thing to see and our own human brain is instinctively repulsed by witnessing it. It falls so far outside the normal standard way of how we are "used" to seeing mice walk that it triggers a sort of revulsion, a primal revulsion is the best word I can use to describe it. If I were H.P. Lovecraft (not the racist dickhead one, but the master of eldritch horror one) I might call it a thing that should not be, and that would be a very good way to put it. There can also be changes in animal behavior in terms of what I would call their mental state. They can become more aggressive, they may attack each other for much smaller transgressions, those attacks may become more vicious, and they become much more self destructive and generally less concerned for their own or other animals well being overall. Of course, often times they are too sick to do any of these things, at least not very well.

When I Was In Psychiatric Ward
Everyone has stereotypes about these kinds of words. The stigma of mental illnesses are still strong, enough to say that the stigma is brought up in families. For family members to fear these struggles. No one will understand until it is them.
