In today’s episode we have a chat with Katrina who shares with us her long journey in dealing with her son's mental health issues from a young age, with a combination of schizophrenia and drug use psychosis. 

In our chat you’ll discover:

  • the effect it had on the family
  • how they had to navigate the system to get help
  • what it means to feel safe 
  • planning ahead.

Just a heads-up and warning that this episode contains content which may be triggering for some of you as it covers discussions on trauma and drug use.
