  • Oh Herewego big hugs to you. I often get the weepies and even though the tears haven't fallen today they are definitely there! I suffered from depression a few years ago and even though I'm not on anti-depressants now I sometimes wonder whether I did the right things by coming off them. I hope a nice bath makes you feel better x

    Hello pet, i hope you are feeling better. Remember there are a lot of people dealing with horrible problems like debt. At least you are solving it rather than burying your head in the sand like many.

    Hopefully it is the time of the month and you will feel better tomorrow. If you are still tearful and finding it difficult do pop into your doctor. Sometimes people push themselves too hard and this might be your body's way of telling you that you need to be kind to yourself and rest and maybe the doctor can suggest something else for you.

    Good luck, pet. Big hugs. You are not alone. Do keep posting someone is always on MSE. You have lots of friends.

    Big hugs,

    :j

    Thanks all DH is trying not to say the wrong thing and im holding it together now, how bizarre what a strange day.
    My friend has been texting as she has never seen me like that before we may be tough on the outside but we are all softies underneath.
    Just phone studio and cheque was posted yesterday so going to transfer the money to additions now as have a little surplus car cash sitting on my account waiting for DH to make his mind up. If it stays there too long I may just pay all the cards off :rotfl:
    Ebay sales today £9.15 must update my April totals.
    Thanks again all really appreciate the comments even if they do make me cry

    HWG - debt busting is exhausting, emotionally and physically and we do have to give ourselves a break sometimes.

    I do hope you are feeling a bit better now.............if not as Taxi says please consider visit to GP.

    I think a little treat is in order too....................something for you to ponder.

    You owe £1000 less than you did in January and you have not added to it either and that is a tremendous achievement, so please take a step back, acknowledge your achievements and bow to your adoring audience because we think you are just fantastic!!
    LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
    (CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
    Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!
  • I agree with Red you are doing absolutely fantastically and as she says debtbusting is exhausting emotionally so don;t beat yourself up about it x

    Morning.
    Hope you are feeling a little better today. Don't beat yourself up for showing your more 'vulnerable' side to friends and family. Personally, I often go out with my happy face on for friends and they have no idea what is really going on in my head and it's exhausting!! Real friends will help you through the bad days, hence all the texts (and just look at all the messages of support on here!)
    Thinking of you x
    Proud to be dealing with my debts,
