Debt Store Junkie
Date: Tue, 10/10/2006 - 17:34
I'm getting closer and closer to the point where I can finally get out of this hell. Most of the time I push it to the back of my mind. Otherwise I find it can completely consume me. I can\'t stand being in debt anymore, and we have been working and are getting closer and closer and closer to being able to start digging ourselves out.
It has been a relief reading some of your posts tonight, I hate those phone calls, hate them. Hate the letters, hate it all. It\'s very frustrating when your hands are tied and you can\'t do anything about it. I\'m working at it. And I have all intentions of paying off my debts, once I can actually afford to do it.
I didn\'t intend this to happen the way it did. It just spiraled out of control before I realized it. Now I feel so far gone I don\'t know where to start. Almost there now, can almost see where to start, can see a tiny little light miles down the tunnel.
I haven\'t gotten into trouble with PDL\'s, just credit cards and a small student loan debt. I\'ve managed to keep my large student loan payment current, though I still struggle every month to actually pay it. That payment alone is more than most people\'s car payments.
Almost their, almost there, the panic is subsiding, I\'m moving forward, trying to earn the money, trying to pay it all off, almost there... I long for the days when my phone doesn\'t ring anymore, where I\'m excited to see who is calling... now it\'s just a nusiance and I want to change numbers again.
So I push it back, back to the deeper recesses of my mind. I\'m not going to let it shut me down. Can\'t get out if I can\'t move.

Hi Marisa,
I'm glad you found us, this is a great place that has helped so many people, me included.
Have you considered debt consolidation? A counselor will call you to talk about it..You're under no obligation, but definitely ask any questions you might have.
Read through the forums, and post frequently..You can gain a lot of insight and get some great advice here. Good luck.
