Abstrakt:	Objective: The purpose of this article is to explore the lived experience of having a child removed by child protection services for mothers living with mental illness. Method: This phenomenological study collected data from eight mothers through in-depth interviews. Data were analysed using interpretive phenomenological analysis. Results: The overall phenomenon of living with child removal was found to consist of four overarching essential components: chaotic lives pre-removal; pain and loss; protecting myself; and constrained mothering. Discussion: Mothers need support to manage the suffering associated with child removal in the context of already chaotic lives. Parenting and mental health services are in a position to assist mothers to develop adaptive coping strategies and minimise maladaptive strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
