Hi Samantha,
This sounds like a very difficult situation for you. wheelygirl's suggestion is a good one - have you ever had contact with social services for any sort of assessment of your needs? Do you children provide care for you?
It might be an idea to call the helpline to talk through the situation if that's something that you would like to do.
edit - I see you've had a great response to your other post.
