My adult son has just walked out. He is depressed and anxious? I am not sure what to do.

He has just arrived back home.  I am exhausted. I have been caring for 35 years with the situation. I don’t know where to go for help for myself. He does see Professionals nothing seems to work. Where could I go for help?

Hey @Patticake ,

How have things been going for you?

I hope you can take time out to look after yourself.

Have you spoken to your son's treating team for additional support?
