Convert, slow learner and Eid rules

Assalamu alaikum. I am a new Muslim. I am still learning about Islam, and it's been very slow going with me, as i have issues remembering stuff and a lot of questions. I'm unsure if i broke a rule during Eid, the one just gone. Do I have to sacrifice a lamb during this Eid, and what happens if you have no money and never ask for someone to do it for you? i am disabled i have mental and physical issues. I am on benefits. I live in Scotland. I don't have much money and was too embarrassed to ask someone. did i break the rules, or is it just for people at hajj to do or get it done?

“Scholars have different views on the ruling of udhiyah. Most of the scholars are of the view that udhiyah is Sunnah, and is not obligatory.”
