    Thinking about you! stay strong - it will be hard I'm sure - but you will find support here when you need it
  • Christ.........
    Thank you, Thank you so much for replying.
    I try to stay strong but u have to let go sometimes.

    Although I have told hubbie, he treats it just having a cold or
    he can't have a roast dinner at work.
    OMG.................if I ask him to phone anyone he hates it.
    Sorry
  • Hiya HC :D

    I'm sorry I don't know much about your situation, you must have posted something before.

    Is it the chat tomorrow with the CCCS that's bothering you?

    Don't worry about it please, it will be fine.... and if it isn't - come back here for some more help, nobody will let you go through it alone

    You do have to let go sometimes (you should have seen me yesterday!!! was having a bad day! - and everyone knew it! ) But you are doing the right thing and talking with CCCS tomorrow will shed a cpompletely different light on things I'm sure! They are also not there to judge - just to try to help! and posting on here will give you support too - I don't post very often but reading everyone else's posts helps alot!

    Your hubby doesn't sound like he is at the same palce as you with this - that will be hard! maybe after you talk to CCCS and have a plan It will be easier to explian to him! Also you say you have let this happen??? Did he not contribute to or get any benefit from the spending that got you into debt?
  • How can it be fine.............

    I am too scared to buy a loaf of bread/marg let alone fillings

    Hopefully they will tell me what to do.

    If they don't......... i don't know what to do

    Don't want to sound like a drama queen but got serious probs

  • Found your other posts.

    Looking at your SOA, it seems you can afford to pay something towards the debts and still live, is that how you feel?

    If you do,then you should stop worrying right about NOW, it will work out ok.
  • :grouphug:one of them dodgy smilies needed

    CCCS are brilliant ,
    you will be talking to real humans, who will help you:eek::D
    they are on your side:T
    not asking what you will pay, but finding out what you can pay
    ;)
    I had a wobble when my review came up :eek:
    got that bit out of the way:T
    and spent 15 mins talking about :confused::confused: life in general:T

  • Yeah...........u r right. He has gained from this debt.
    I have told him how bad it is.
    But, I allowed it to get this bad by not saying "No" & yes he has shared
    it with me but I am the one that told him that we could afford it.

    I am still scared though.
    Bloody frightened of the phone call at 10am

    I know it looks or maybe feels serious, but there are also solutions.

    I think you will be posting here tomorrow feeling loads better ;)
  • Hi Insider66

    At the moment, I can't see the way through.
    Please give me a hope, I can't see a way to live with paying the debts.
    We are living on about £35 weekly for everything.
    The rest is on cards which I shredded at work this week.
    So we are struggling seriously now with a 12 yr daughter as well.
    I go without food so that they can eat, I live on sandwiches etc.

    Can you see why I am scared
