It is not easy to be granted DSP. I needed a detailed report from both my gp and psychiatrist. I also had to have a work assessment done. I wonder how many DSP applications are declined? How many are rorting the system? The way that those of us who are on DSP are being discussed and used makes it seem that we should all just die so that we stop being such an inconvenience.
I think Josh Fear, from the mental health network, just said about 40% of applicants get the support payment, either that or 40% are rejected. Either way it's clear it's not an easy process to get on the DSP.
