I earn on the face of it ‘enough’ money. I was paid today. After all bills… childcare being the key one of 1,700, I have got 130 to last me the rest of the month. Ex pays cms of 800. My mortgage is 1k. I feel sick. Stressed. I will have a horrible day at work again as it’s so busy and I’ve had three hours of sleep. I honestly wish I could disappear what is the point.

You might be financially better off dropping to part time for a year or two. UC childcare payments might mean you come out with either more time, more money or both.
Google the "entitled to benefit calculator" and put in the figures for part time work.
You sound close to burn out.
