Losing my grasp on perspective.

Some days are better than others but at the moment I feel like my life is slowly slipping out of my control and I'm just feeling utterly overwhelmed and isolated from support.
I feel like all my close friends are out of contact, my remaining family my elderly father lives on the other side of the world, my last relationship ended last year and I'm afraid to speak to anyone at work in case the facade falls and they see me as a wreck.
As a single dad, i struggle at the best of times to find time for myself let alone time to speak to anyone about this.
I feel like my work is starting to really suffer because of my state and I feel overwhelmed trying to put it right and restore confidence.
I don't want to end my life and I can't afford to not work but I wish I could just reset things somehow and start again. I don't know how much longer I can last in this constant state of survival. I feel like I'm running out of options and I don't know what else I can do.

Mr K there is someone in your life that loves you and needs your love. You are a single dad. There is a child that craves your attention. Enjoy it. This is a wonderful moment. When you are truely old, this will be the time that makes you smile.

I love both of my children very much but I am constantly worried that I might fall them, loose my job and possibly lose their time, trust and love.
when I say I am alone I am literally the person who might not speak to anyone all weekend if my children are not here.
nobody calls, nobody remembers me. I don’t have a voice so I reach out here. I know my kids love me but they can’t fix my problems.
im not able to properly eat or sleep at the moment because I am so stressed. I’m falling apart and I have no one to help me put myself together.
