Hi @Former-Member
As expected no help. Wellways were sympathic but said we fell in the cracks.
Can't see how someone who has lost 6 jobs in the past 6 months can't need a case worker.

We are seeing the gp Thursday to get her input. I will phone cat team to find out if anything can be done by them seeing as he has lost the jobs since last contact.

We saw my husbands psych yesterday who unfortunately is too busy to see our son. He was interested to chat about the situation and
a bit flabbergasted that he is on 4 meds. He thinks the old school med for bi polar should be tried and if it works should mean only med required. His psych says it's about getting the meds right. My husband will ask Thursday at sons psych appt.

We have another appt with alternate psych early October for second opinion hoping son may gel better with someone younger.

So we continue to try to survive the next two months and keep life as normal as possible.

Sad situation that if we had no interest in helping our son he would access more help.
