hi
i dont know if this is of any use as i live in cheshire also. i work for o2 in runcorn and i know we are always taking on, it may not be the best job in the world but it may help with paying off some debts.
you are already showing your strength by posting on here today, this is the first step for you

Hi and thank you i'll keep this in mind but at the moment i have other ideas to try first but thank you all the same.

Hi I am so glad you are feeling better. I have been thinking about you since I read your post and searching for this thread. Come on here as much as you can it really helps! Stay strong! x

glad to see that you feeling a bit better today. having suffered with depression myself ( and others on here who have been through the same) i know that sometimes just letting everything out can seem like a weight off your shoulders and sometimes its easier to talk to people that aren't too close to home.
if you feel the need to let off steam or rant then come on here and we will be here to listen to it, when you have a good day come on here and we will celebrate it with you. this is a really unique site thats more of a community and you are now part of it.

Hi im-empty
This thread brought tears to my eyes. I understand what you are going through, well my dh probably understands better than I do, but I understand from a wifes perspective.
We ended up in loads of debt my dh felt suicidal, he had a nervous breakdown, we had only just had son 2 so things were tight, we ended up with court dates being set to start re-posession of our house.

To start with i will tell you now, I would have lived on the streets as long as me dh and our boys were all together, My life would have fallen apart if I had lost him, i really couldn't have cared less about houses and cars etc.....

This is what we did...Sold our house for under market value for super quick sale...just about made enough to pay off mortgage and debts, We then were able to start from the beginning. We moved into private rented and claimed housing benefit etc. (they required proof that our house was about to be re-posesed and that all the money had gone on debts, well they wanted receipts for every penny) They agreed that we hadn't made ourselves homeless. We have since then been building up slowly, bit by bit , dh went docs and counselling and I found a part time job. We both started studying with Open Univerity so something to aim for in the long run.

Sorry for the long post, I just want you to know your not alone, and however bad things might seem if yu sit down and discuss with your wife you will find solutions...(even if it means (like we did) offering all your debtors a pound a month)

Keep us posted.

Hi im-empty,
I was offline all day yesterday, but was anxious to check in and make sure you're ok. I hope things are looking a little brighter.
