A Big Thank You

Hi all,
I have been reading threads for newly a year! Have just found the courage to post.
I found myself in a huge hole financially after a long illness.
The bills kept coming and the debts got bigger.
I read all the sound advice and after much soul searching I declared myself BR on 5th Dec, 08.
For anyone like me who dithered, don't, get it done. I was obviously scared to death but I found everyone at court kind and helpful.
OR interview was done by phone, and further info. requested twice, but tried to be as helpful as I could.
At 7weeks post BR I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted.
I wake up now and wonder why I'm not worrying.
Thank you all, very very much XxXxXx:j:j:j
