I care for my son who has severe autism and my husband who has several mental health disorders. I work part time and while I do what I can, we have no support system in place. We are from overseas and I am really struggling to build up any sort of support system here. Being an unpaid carer can be isolating in itself but being from overseas makes that isolation that bit worse. I wish there was more support here for carers.
