    we can help, no one here is after your money dora :D Debt free me sound a bit like a fee paying company. You can tell us more about this later.

    Take a deep breath, pat yourself on the back for finding us and take a deep breath again :)

    You might want to make yourself a nice :coffee: and get all the info together for a SOA ( which I bet youve done for DF me?) nad post it up, we can help.
    look at your outgoings and discuss with you a plan of action. most of us have found ourselves in debt & drowning, we all know and understand how stressful it can be.
    Big welcome

    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind

    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:
  • :wave: Welcome Dora. Take some deep breaths and a cup of tea as Lynz said.

  • What Is An Soa By The Way Hune??
  • Please don't think about harming yourself. There is a solution. Don't deprive your children of you, they need their parents!

    Don't waste your time with Debt Free Me (who are they anyway?) Go to Payplan or CCCS as they will help you for NOTHING.

    Please go to your doctor as well, as you are feeling so desperate. Please don't panic. Lots of people on here have HUGE debts and everyone on here will help and advice you. There is light at the end of the tunnel!
