Hi there,
Well, since my mom stole some money by forging checks in mine and my stepdads name, I had to take out a loan for him for $3000.00 and it has not been paid and grown to over $5,000.00. MRS collection agency agreed to settle it at $3580.00. I also have a car that was repossessed around the same time due to my mom taking my money and me being sick. I owe them $1200.00. I am mainly focused on these right now even though I have student loans too. I am on disability for a condition that I got 5 years ago called Interstitial Cystitis which is a very painful autoimmune illness. Crying or Very sad

Please help! Also, I have car payments of $354.00 per month and I pay $630.00 toward rent each month. Insurance is about $110. Phone is about $100.

That's quite a lot. I am sorry to hear about your illness. Can you call the creditors and see if they have any hardship programs for people like you. I think most companies do have such provisions.
