Life after bankruptcy?

Second to what Beanie said too - one form down, one less than was there this morning so it is a step forward (even if it might not feel like it). Personally i reckon we should all hit google earth, find the garden with all the daffs and prepare a MSE flahsmob to fill in Ani's forms (and of course dish out tea and group hugs) xxx0

I am completely at a loss when it comes to forms but I will bring Earl Grey and encouragement.
Ani, don't let the er... system grind you down.Miggy

Eeeeee, despite how i'm feeling, you lot gave made me smile, so thanks for that xx
I also had to google flashmob
A flash mob (or flashmob)[1] is a group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and seemingly pointless act for a brief time, then disperse, often for the purposes of entertainment, satire, and artistic expression

Its becoming a real struggle again, as people are only human, and although its maybe easy to say, this, this and this help is forthcoming, in reality, very little help is forthcoming at all. Every person i meet says i'm angry. I don't have the energy to be angry. Do i really come across as angry? Never.I know i've done everything in my power to get help, along rhe way, but every avenue has been blocked. I'm now back into a stressed state. The pod i was in for the last few days was, well, i can't describe it, but i can't stay there forever. Real things get in the way. Like money, and bills and debts.
Now i have an uphill task with the meeting today. I don't have the energy to cope. Do they know that? Everything is starting to bug me know. Even simple things like the council still hasn't sorted out repairs and things which need doing here. I'm irritated over the fact i've got a perfectly good washing machine, i can't use. Its costing more money to go to the launderette than it would in electricity. I have a kitchen which isn't fit for purpose, and now that too, is beginning to grind me down, now i'm home all day. Whats happened to help getting a cooker? Maybe i expect too much.But they did say help was forthcoming. Empty promises.But probably things which most other people take for granted, in their purpose built kitchens. I have a roof over my head, don't i? Just about. After the appointments this week, no one will know.Debt free - Is it a state of mind? a state of the Universe? or a state of the bank account?

Thanks miggy x
I managed to get to the meeting, the upshot being i am owed over £1k in overpaid income tax. It doesn't matter too much, as it will take months before it is repaid. Its all talking about something which doesn't exist in reality, to me.
I've now reached an all time low. Nothing is being done to help me. Maybe i'm not shouting loud enough, maybe i don't have the energy to shout anymore, maybe i just don't care anymore. I can't be bothered to write how i feel anymore. I have only one thing on my mind. It now dominates my thoughts again, and i have several plans. The more the better. I can't get it out of my head. For once in my life, i have to achieve 100% perfection at something i do. I've always been a failure. Got to achieve perfection.
The csw has never materialised. The sw can't come for another week to help me with my forms for benefit, and even then, i don't have an appointment. I've tried to get an appointment with my gp, two days ago, and the best i could do is a telephone appointment today. What do you say in a 2 minute phonecall? I don't know what to say. I've realised my sick note is due to expire soon. Its been almost a month and i still haven't completed my forms for benefit. I'm going to run out of the money i have soon, and it will take weeks, even months for my benefit to come through? Some one rang me with some work yesterday. I didn't answer, but work is money? I know i can't possibly work. On the other hand i can't continue like this. This isn't living. I don't want to live. I know next week will be too late.Debt free - Is it a state of mind? a state of the Universe? or a state of the bank account?

Just received a letter saying i've got to appear in court for non payment of council tax. Another £45 added in costs. If i don't appear i will be proceeded against as if i have appeared and be dealt with according to the law. So much for wr.

call them up ani, and tell you have a sw who is supposed to be helping you complete the forms and the wr, but things are at a standstill at the moment.
Otherwise they send the bailiffs in after the court case, and you have to pay the bailiffs on the doorstep.0
