I'm at breaking point

This might be long. I've NC for this and I don't want to go too much in depth as can be outing.
I just don't know what to do with myself anymore. I have 3 DC. After my second DC I was really bad PND to the point where I was self harming, I was cutting myself and I OD'd on my medication at the time. DC3 is 10 months old and I'm suffering again, I don't feel as bad as last time but I'm scared and the thoughts are there again, please note I am seeking medical help for this. Lately I've been feeling so low that I'm terrified of having another break down. I break down to the point that I can't control my actions in the sense that I upset the people I love. I'm currently going through another one. I feel lonely, I feel that no one cares. I'm lying in bed crying as I write this. I'm at a loss, I think my DC deserve a better mum than me. I'm just bad for everyone and i feel they're better off if I weren't around. Feel free to ask any questions even if I end up drop feeding as my heads a mess so I don't see how any of this will make sense really.
I just need to hear that I'm not in my own, I've turned here to seek some words that can maybe uplift me. Maybe that's asking too much, I'm probably attention seeking. I'm just so low I can't stop crying

OP is there anyone you can call for a chat? Or to help you with DC? Do you have a partner? If you were a crap mum you wouldn’t be worrying about them and I’m sure your family would disagree that they’d be better off without you. You just need a bit of help at the mo.

I'm not with their dad. We're close still and he supports me both financially and emotionally but I guess his GF is more important. He doesn't seem to care when she's around and right now he's with her. I have spoken to my friend so can sort of relate to me which has helped a little I guess. Whenever I've had a breakdown I end up traumatised from it. I have nightmares of me breaking down. Ive felt so low for days so I knew deep down this would happen again

I understand OP, rock bottom is a hellish place to be, am a frequent visitor myself. Is there any support you could call on to get you through today and then hopefully you will be able to see GP urgently beginning of the week? I hope you are sleeping, I am finding it difficult to drop off due to anxiety
