    Well I have carried on being normal lol, but have started to come out the other side of feeling so crappy. I have been suffering from the stress, forgetting things and generally being forgetful, but am now feeling happier and once the OR interview is over I hope things will settle down and we can go forward with our lives, hand this house back to HSBC and move to a rental, and have a "nice" summer!

    You're really in a bit of limbo until you get the OR interview out of the way. Once thats done you can start to feel better.

    How you feel is completely normal :hug: The time between going to court and the OR interview I found to be one of the most stressful times. It will get better, honestly, you've been carrying around the burden for so long, sometimes it takes a while to realise that you've put it down.

    I suppose you are right there December. Just read another thread, where the guy had just been declared BR and was saying how funny he felt as he left court to think that "he had no debts".

    I still feel very responsible for my debts, and haven't got my head around that they really are not "there" anymore and are not my responsibility and the Receiver is in charge of them.

    I suppose once the OR interview is over and we know what is happening with our money I will feel better and the other big bug bear is our house - which we want to do a vol repro on. Once we have a new house to live in and that is sorted I think I will start to be normal again.
