Overdraft help

Please help, all advise welcome.
Last June i was very sill when it came to money and i have online banking, i tried to apply for an overdraft just upto £1000 and it let me do it straight away so i tried for more and more and more! i now have an overdraft of £6000. Not once did my bank contact me to see if i could afford to pay this back, whick i cant! i know its my own silly fault but i kept pushing it. I am now wondering if theres anyway i can stop the interest on this so i can slowly pay it back. i know that it can be done with reclaiming bank charges, any help please as i am at my wits end and its all i can think about every day. Thank you

    Hey Yummy Mummy, you've done the right thing asking for help.. This might be better answered in the debt free wannabe board.... lots of helpful knowledgeable people on this sort of thing there.
