|---|---|
| Diagnostic Inconsistency | Dr. Kalaji assessment suggested possible psychosis, but treatment prescribed was inconsistent with this diagnosis |
| Medication Contradiction | Stimulant medications (Phentermine) prescribed despite psychosis concerns |
| Current Diagnosis Validation | 2025 assessments confirm ADHD, ASD, PTSD, and DID - consistent with medication history |
| System Validation | DSP and NDIS approvals in 2024-2025 confirm qualifying disability |
Request for Review
Based on the evidence presented, I respectfully request:
A comprehensive review of the 2019-2024 DSP rejection decisions
