Hi Kathy

I realised you also posted on the end of another post and I did reply. How are things going?

I think I may have said - but the first two things that helped us was when I accepted my son had a mental health issue and then he accepted this as well. We then started to take those small steps forward. Maturity later kicks in and is of great help...but eludes us sometimes as well - but my son is beginning to learn to manage some things.
It will get better - hang in there - and make sure you take time out for yourself. You are a good mum and doing all you can.
Take care
Linda
