Psychosocial Disability

Psychosocial disability refers to difficulties a person experiences in functioning and participating in daily life due to mental health conditions or social challenges related to mental well-being. It can affect how someone thinks, feels, socializes, and handles everyday tasks. These challenges may be ongoing or episodic, impacting their ability to work, maintain relationships, or engage in community activities. Recognizing psychosocial disability is important for providing appropriate support and understanding that these issues are real, legitimate, and often best managed through a combination of treatment, accommodation, and social understanding.
