So sorry. This sounds like it is a very stressful time for anyone so it is no wonder you feel a return to anxiety and stress disorder.

Can you speak to your GP first of all. Try to get an emergency appointment.

Secondly can you speak to CAB to get advice on your financial and benefits situation.

Didn't want to read and run. Sounds like a trip to the doctor would be good. Also is there a way you can get a bit more sleep? Sleep deprivation does awful things to you. Thinking of you, OP!

There's nothing wrong with you, Lovey. It sounds like you've got an awful lot on your plate...add inadequate sleep to that and of course you must be feeling terrible. Is there someone, friend or family, that can give you a break to get out for some fresh air for a few hours to clear your head? Are you not sleeping for worry or because your toddler is up? If the former, your GP can most definitely give you something to help with that and possibly for the anxiety too. Keep posting here...lots of folks on MN who are dealing with anxiety, financial stresses and challenging toddlers Flowers.
