I have phoned my gp to put my son into care so what was meant to be has happened.My mental health since the universal credit system came in took such a down ward spiral and never really fully recovered.Been waiting nearly 2 years for therapy and now I just feel very lost

    Really sorry to hear it's come to that @Jane315STARX. But perhaps it'll give you a little space to get yourself into a better place. And hopefully your son will get the support he needs too. It's been a hugely stressful time for you both. I hope there are some easier times ahead for you.

    Oh sorry to hear this jane you must be exhausted you done everything you could as rosie said hopefully your son can get the treatment he needs and you can get therapy take time to decompress you have been under so much pressure and worry for months this could be a good thing your son has more of a chance with treatment if he's in care they could design a care package for him thinking of you

    best wishes and kind thoughts x
