We lost our 30 yr old son to suicide just 5 wks ago. We are all heart broken. I miss him so much. My son was Treatment Resistant Schizophrenic. Been under the care of our local Community Mental Health team for last 9 yrs. The system let him down.

Hello @Karenw12,
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. It sounds as though things are incredibly difficult at the moment and you are feeling totally heartbroken.
