Being driven to my wits end by DS (15)

I am a single parent to a 15 year old boy and a 10 year old girl. I do not have help and support from family, the children's father is not around.

I am being driven to the absolute wits end by my son. He is lazy, disrespectful. Won't get put of bed, sleeps all day. Complains theres no food and i wont give him money. Ideally I'd be around but I also have to work to keep food on the table. Today I finally snapped, lost my temper, told him I couldn't stand him, screamed threw things and shouted. I know this is a sign of me not coping but I am just at the end of the road.

I am embarrassed feeling like this is all my fault and I am.the worst mother in the world.

Please if anyone has any advice or resources I can go to for help.
