waiting to do a debt relief order

i have been offered a debt relief order.
i am waiting to get the £90 together and to arrange my bills around allowing for the £90.
i just wanted to say that i am needing this so badly
i am a bag of nerves, paranoid, cant open the door, open letters and dont want to go near the phone.
my debts arent credit card or huge debts but they have ruined my life in the fact i am an anxious mess- just total mess with depession and anxiety dominating.
has anyone done bankruptcy and debt relief order and they have felt better after?
i am so used to feel a hunted woman and in the wrong that i feel like burying my head in the samd over every issue in my life
i am loking forward to doing this DRO and learning to face up to difficult uncmfortable communications and letters and learning to do it witout a ton of anxiety.
anyone else like this too?

    Well done to facing up to your debts. You're doing the right thing. And you're not alone. Dealing with it can be stressful and cause alot of emotions throughout it. Most of us on here have been in very stressful situations like yourself, dealing with constant threats and demands. But just look forward, not back, and you'll get through it. Just keep reading these sites to get help and support from everyone on here. It does help. We all deal with our debt differently, but the point is, we are dealing with it. Remember that, and Good-luck
