Tryed all this had a support worker but havnt been able to get to the door quick enough I work for the council and was an activity carer for teens but they seen me have a brake down and not offered me work for two years ... scared I might loose my kids because I can't function every day ... and the days I can it's short lived it gets me after a short walk .

Have you tried phoning our helpline? They're very busy, so you might not get through straight away - but it would be well worth discussing your situation with them to see if there's any support you can get.
