Hey @Butterflymagic,
Welcome back to ReachOut! It's nice to hear from you again. I’m sorry to hear that you are still experiencing difficulties finding support for you and your son. Living in a small town can make accessibility challenging to needed services and supports. Without the necessary support from services, friends or family, supporting your own health and wellbeing as well as your sons would be incredibly taxing, overwhelming and frustrating to say the least.
I can see from your previous posts that you have been seeking support for you and your son for some time now, which I can hear has made you feel depleted. So, I am wondering how you have been coping during this time? You have also previously mentioned that your son has a number of diagnoses and that you have tried to connect with a number of services for support but to no avail. So, I am also curious to know how your son is doing at the moment?
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

I have just been putting one foot in front of another as they say.
I have approached local politicians ,but again to no avail, approached so called support services ,only to be told that there's no help.
Lack of NDIS support services in my area have also been a hard road to navigate.
my own health has its good and bad days, I can be fine one minute,,but screaming in pain the next .

It looks like you’re visiting us from a country other than Australia.
We are an Australian service and think you’d benefit more from looking up a similar service in your country.
You are welcome to look around the forums, but please don’t make an account or post, as we can’t offer you the help you may need.
Before you go ahead and post, you should know that we remove non-Australian accounts – not because we don’t want to help or connect with you, but because we may not be able to provide you with the service that you require.
