Help!

When you have a teenager who is totally out of control... and I do mean that literally, where do you go for help?
I can tell you where you can't get help! That would be, Social Services, CAMHS, Council... to a degree school.
There is nothing in place to help parents, is that because we have dug our own grave?? My daughter is one of four, she is the youngest, none of our kids were angels I am not suggesting that but the other three had respect for us, they pretty much did as they were asked, they went to school, didn't swear at us, lie steal smoke under age, drink under age......
We have brought them all up in the same way.
This is making me ill!
Last year I had 4 months off work with stress and depression, and so much for the family friendly approach of my employers, I had  requested a change of shift pattern which was agreed then they messed it up and I am now being told I could go onto relief work, which means I won't know from one week to the next what shifts I am doing!! My husband is a shift worker and we have to be able to sort out someone to be home every night, this is turning into the biggest nightmare ever. Sometimes I can see no way out of the mess my life is in
