I have two sons with mental health problems.
One of my sons needed attention, but due to his mental condition I couldn't get him to hospital.
The Early Intervention team that help deal with psychiatric patients wouldn't come out to help me get him to hospital. So I stuggled myself to get him in the car in order to get him to A&E. This was such a struggle.
