"Helped enormously"

About: Parent Support Link

(as a parent/guardian),

My son with autism and asperges and mental health issues drinks dangerous levels of alcohol has had a few seizures in the past been in hospital on numerous occasions where is ketones have been at abnormal dangerous levels and been in intensive care.

He is also Type 2 diabetic and self neglects his medication etc. I have been at my wits end with worry for his safety. But thanks to the PSL Group who are so supportive of us all with our siblings with their addictions. l dont know where we would be. And also one to one counselling l have received helps me enormously.
