Bad experience

I have an investment plan with Salam,I made an withdrawal in 2021 I now need the money back but they telling about the 1997 act and that I couldn’t withdraw money more once in 5 years but my problem is that I lost my job and my kids are suffering while I have money,I can’t wait for more then 5 years

I need my money back,am faced with so financial stress and difficulties right now but am being sent pillar to post with the money I invested that I got as an inheritance from my mom who passed away last year and now we about lose everything because they couldn’t help us with the cancellation of the plan ,am young I didn’t know that investing would come with so much stress when I really needed the money??what is left to do is for me to kill myself so that my kids can excess the money,I don’t know what else to do!!!
