    I'm glad you wrote this. Everyone who is in debt has a different story, and no matter the amount of debt or the cause of it or the lifestyle of the person in debt, debt is debt is debt, and it's a stressful and sensitive subject. So THANK YOU for telling your story. And BOO to you judgmental snots who're ragging on someone for telling a very personal story.

    After making making myself physically ill with stress over MY credit card bills, I finally broke down and called Consumer Credit Counseling Service. It was the best thing I could have done for myself. Of course, I'm not allowed to have any more credit cards for a while, but that's fine by me.

    Whatever the steps a person has to take - borrowing money, working three jobs, getting help from a non-profit - is fantastic in my book, as long as they are steps in the right direction.

    You done good, girl.
