Hi Fibrogirl. You are welcome to vent and de-stress😄👍! Give the colleges a ring and ask about grants/bursaries etc. Citizens advice might help to point you in the right direction too for funding/benefits and health issues. The Citizens advice people I've spoken to have all been very nice and help as much as possible.

You take care😘, Health.

Hello there are government grants for people who want to study, I got a course paid for me which I could do at home & I got a qualification/certificate in the end. Also you can get help with equipment you may need if you have a disability. Just give it a Google. Always worth speaking to a careers advisor as they can also help you with courses and funding etc xx

some free courses you can do at home open.edu/openlearn/free-cou... while you seek other opportunities

funding opportunities for not-free courses on here - scan down the page open.ac.uk/courses/fees-and...

As AllthatGlitters says - have a google for funding, there is a disability support allowance (DSA) too

Go for it, the brain stays active and you have goals to aim for
