We’re staying with relatives now but DS has additional needs and their kindly offered spare room isn’t a long term solution. We’ve been here 2 weeks now.
We used to live a street away from DS’s Dad and had him to stay in my lodger’s room during lockdown as he was struggling to cope mentally. He eventually had a full blown relapse of his alcoholism and it got pretty difficult. He was deeply depressed rather than aggressive but still had a very bad impact on DS and it was extremely tough for me.
I’m trying to figure out moving - from DS’s only home - but it’s not quick and easy at the best of times.
I know so many people are having a hard time now. I’ve got a lot to be grateful for. On the other side DS may well lose his Dad, he’s very worried about him. Social Services were contacted by A&E after one visit and they think I’ve done the right thing leaving our home and going quite a long way away where we have family support.
Could really do with handholding, practical advice even a spare biscuit.
