    OMG I feel your pain but this is really not good enough.  I truly hope you can find the help that they deserve. Anyone would have thought a serious event like that would have triggered a better response.  The support for our children is woeful, I just hope there’s a way to get support before it’s too late.

    Kooth.com is a useful online resource.  I honestly don’t know how good they’ll be in your situation but they might be able to help somehow.

    I know the problems with trying to get help, we’ve been fighting for 3 years with about 6 months of counselling just for that resource to be defunded.  Fortunately we’re ‘just’ dealing with severe anxiety.

    I hope you get the support that’s so clearly desperately needed.
