Please no judgement I'm really struggling at the moment.
I split with my ltp last year. Since then I have been struggling with mental health issues. My children have been struggling with the split to the point it's affecting my eldest schooling and they have recommended counselling. They cry a lot and get upset as they just want 'their happy family back' and I just I'm no longer able to comfort my own children because it's not me they want. I hate seeing them upset and just feel they would be happier off with their father while I sort myself out. I currently get tax credits, child benefits and housing benefit and I am in temporary homeless accommodation as placed by the council.
If I was to sign them over for a few weeks what will happen to my home/benefits when they come back? Will I lose everything on top of losing the kids? I have family but not close by they are aware of my struggles, but believe I'm doing better but in actual fact it's breaking my heart seeing my kids so upset and not even being able to properly comfort them.
Does anyone have any advice? Please I already feel like the world's worst parent I just need some help and advice.
