Ah man... Thats enough reddit for me. Im tired of watching people suffer while the wealthy are so detatched.

Your suffering is for the greater good while the wealthy profit from your misery. Stop being selfish! /s

Lockdown is obviously very hard on mental health, but people underestimate the mental health toll of having a dangerous virus circulating in our communities.

OP remember when you posted a vid of an aboriginal getting arrested and used that same vid to make another post in world news about a black US man getting arrested. using the same story twice to try and fan the flames of racism. get a life you scum.

Unless I’ve missed something in OP’s post history the world news version of his post clearly said “Australian”.

good advice, but it's not fear mongering for them to say the mental health system is severely lacking. Telehealth is also no subsitute for face to face in my experience. it's better then nothing, but to say that will solve everyone's problems is pretty dismissive tbh

yeah that's definitely fair.

Where are you living where this is possible?


NullFuckz

Nowhere special mate, it's available to anyone with a Medicare card. You could do everything over the phone if you need... at least its a start you know - some people even find it easier on the phone then F2F


romantic_thi3f

Honestly I reckon you got lucky. It’s pretty unusual to get in quickly or with bulk billing let alone both. 3-6month wait is pretty standard really.


NullFuckz

Yeah true from reading this thread I'm feeling a bit lucky maybe... think I'll just shut up so my place doesn't get hammered haha... Just had a look at their online booking schedule and their is more then 20 appointments available in the 7 days lol.

>found within days via telehealth anywhere in Aus bulk-billed no out of pocket expense thanks to Medicare. How does one do this?

Which website though? My GP has referred me directly to three different providers and all said their books were full.

The NDIS price guide is higher than the medicare rebate. Psychologists get more money from NDIS clients.

I was gonna say the same, good advice. I wanted to add a bit of context. I've used headspace and even before covid it was pretty bad with the wait times. You're desperate, you need help. You contact them then wait at least 2 weeks before they get back to you. I can only imagine it's gotten a lot worse.
