Hi, I am a 67 year old male, married for 44 years with 2 sons. My wife has had CFS for 32 years, I am her Carer. Our youngest son, 35, has autism involving very challenging behavior's at times. We are also his Carers. Our oldest son, 40, met a girl from Australia on The Internet and got married and has 2 daughters out there. Due to family argument at their wedding, we only get to see our grand daughters every 2 weeks for 40 minutes through Zoom calls. Our youngest son wants to go to Japan in March and we are going to have to go with him to protect him. We asked if we could come onto Australia, to see our grand daughters, but were told by our son and his wife that they don't want us to come! My wife and I have been on anti depressants for about 30 years, but unfortunately I have now developed an alcohol problem as I self medicate to deal with all this. This of course, wipes out any good I am getting from the anti depressants and causes trouble between my wife and I. We are now at a loss as how to cope with all this.
