Hey @Wits_End, thank you for sharing your experiences here on the Forums!
Just a heads up I sent you an email if you can please check your inbox!
The Forums are a great place to connect with other Members who share similar situations and I'm pleased that you found them. It takes strength and resilience to reach out to your peers.
There is also Cares Victoria which is set up to support carers if you feel that it would be beneficial for you.
Take care

Hi @Wits_End . I would love to connect with you. You need as much support as you can get going through the constant dramas of a mentally ill adult child. My adult son is bipolar so Im desperate to just connect with others too.I'm not sure if I have done this correctly as Im not tech savvy. Cheers @chinup

Hi,
I’m new to this and the same position as you both. It can feel so isolating and I’m at a loss as to what to do as well.

Hey @TK ,
Welcome to the forums. Let me guess, things are a little challenging? I hear you feel you are at a loss what to do.
Is there anything in particular you find challenging?
We are here for you and hope to hear from you soon.
