Re: Begging for help

Hi @Fiona2 ,

Sounds like it has been a very difficult process for all involved for the past 1.5 years or so. It can be really hard to reach out for support and not feel like you are gettting what you need, even more so if you are a support or family member and the individual themselves is not wanting tot access supports. Unfortunately a lot of services are very stuck and unable to provide support and services to an individual who is not consenting to receivng that support. The forums are a good place to share ideas and explore if others have found other ways to approach the same situation.
I do also suggest trying to call our Help Center to explore these ideas but also as a support for yourself if needed. It is easy to forgot about our own self care when all we want is to focus on the person we care most for.

Please reach out if needed andtalk to one of our counsellors for support.

Take care,

Radius
