If you can start making some payments to those you owe then fine don't try and rid everything at once and leave yourself broke and discouraged just make some payments.
Stay sober, work on yourself and sometimes these things have a way of dissapearing not always mind you but at least your able to manage them and don't make anymore debt thats the main thing at least until what you have is taken care of.
I'm no money manager I fly thru the stuff when I have it then freak out and scramble to get more LOL but my credits good and its clean and I have credit now, thouigh my cards are way too high and they just keep giving me more to spend LOL.
Thanks for the feedback. I have decided to deal with the matter, when i return from sea. I can't pay what I do not have but I am willing. It won't do me any good to try and pay everything at once and then be broke and depress. the depress feeling in the past, is one that i use drugs after, trying to make myself feel better. for me that is not an obtion or choice.
My last little binge has cost me my credit and oweing them thousands of dollars. nothing worse then being a responsible citizen long enough to build up a terrific credit , then realapsing !!!
right now i can't do anything about it , they cancelled both my cards. so it's too late for me to salvage anything there.
just getting my feet under me with recovery is enough on my plate. when i get a steady income , then i'll start working on getting my credit paid down.
if anyone out there knows how best to do this, i too, would love to hear it . maybe i can start doing the foot work now. .... thanks for sharing lumubal , and you too bigv....your friend in recovery.....peggy
We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
We recommend turning our legal problems over to lawyers and our financial or medical problems to professionals. Part of learning how to live is not to take on problems and responsibilities that we are not equipped to deal with.
thanks everyone for thie feed back. i am open and will ask god for guidance. doing things my way is what got where i am at today. what i do know, it is not going to make me use and hurt myself. in the past when life issues like this appear, run and use were my solution, no not this day. my thoughts are on the input i recieved from you loving addicts and my god.
i had bad credit in the past and got it right andi can do it again,in time, god's time and not mines.
Very good point bigv!!...lol never thought of that senario. but i should of.
thanks lumumbal, if we did it once we can do it again like you said it's just going to take time and god's will . thanks for the words of incouragement...peggy
