    Hi @chaplin

    That sounds really difficult for everyone and I'm sorry you're going through this.  Has your son had a big life change recently?  (For example, finishing education?) If so, is there any support that is being provided (or needed but not provided?) to him to help him move forward?

    Hi Chaplin

    I wonder if any of the HemiHelp services for young adults would be able to assist your son:
