Patent and child, both mental health sufferers

[Lala75]

Does anyone know of any support or advice available in the UK for both parents and children with mental health issues?

I'm diagnosed with Severe Depression, BPD, PTSD, severe anxiety and panic disorder, Body dismorphia, and Agoraphobia.

My 18 year old daughter is yet to be properly assessed and is on the CMHT waiting list. But how can I get her support in the meantime? As everything I do seems to make things worse.

I'm exhausted and near to breaking point, and could do with some direction on how best to help my daughter (who has very similar mh symptoms as myself).

Fingers crossed there is some support out there for this! Thank you for reading.

I am so sorry that you are going through this, Lala75! I cannot even imagine the strain you are under. I do not live in the UK, so I am unable to recommend anything other than maybe contact a local mental health facility and seek information that way? I am so sorry that you are suffering with this, know you are not alone and in our thoughts.

Oh. Absolutely gutted. I thought I'd finally found something that could help. Thank you anyway.

I think I misunderstood your message. I thought you meant the platform wasn't available in the UK and not simply that YOU aren't in th UK 😂. Please except my apologies. And thank you so much for your reply. X
