PLEASE DON'T KILL YOURSELF. THIS IS NOTHING. Look, own up to it and if you cannot afford a lawyer, tell them you are very sorrry and you may possibly see some jail time, but that is it. DONT WORRY.

IT sounds as if you are in England. If you are, check with the barristers there to see if there is anyone who can help you for free.

Hope this helps.
