How to cope when stressed?

I’m going quite a stressful time.. we were 7 months into a house sale and days before exchange, our buyers have pulled out leaving us £5k out of pocket and we’ve also lost our new house and now have no money to buy a new one so am stuck. I’m also currently awaiting biopsy tests for suspected cancer. My partner has taken on a new job that leaves him out of the house 75 hours a week, my eldest DC is being bullied at school and the babies refusing sleep.

I think I’ve hit breaking point. Im at home throwing up. I don’t feel ill, I just feel so stressed. I’m having heart palpitations which I think is anxiety. I just called a taxi firm to bring me a pack of cigarettes, I haven’t smoked in 10 years but I needed something, I don’t know why.

How do you deal when your stress levels reach too high to cope? My baby is crying to go out but I just can’t. I feel like I can’t move. I’ve never experienced this before. DH says I’m being dramatic when I asked him to come home and I probably am but I feel weak.

Any advice? I need to deal with it better. I don’t think I’m even making sense am I
