    Hi there. Hope you don't mind me butting in. I suffered with ante natal depression with my first child. I wonder if all the stress of losing your parents, bad luck with jobs and the debt have just come to a head. Did you ever have bereavement counselling? Hope I'm not intruding. Fingers crossed for brighter times.

    Ps my life changed forever when dd was born. It's so worth it.

    Pps don't ever go back to that awful smelly house.

    Xx

    Hi, I often stop by to read your diary and tbh i was at a bit of a loss the last couple of times to know what would be helpful to say. You haven't had an easy time and you really have my sympathies!

    but this news makes me say :j great news.

    List up what you owe and what the interest is, that could help in deciding? It sounds like you can just about manage on what you bring in at the moment, the problem of course being the endless cycle back and forth between small high interest debts. If you can get them cleared, you could enjoy a bit of peace of mind it sounds like.
