Zorah, is there a family memeber that can help with the mail or possibly a minister from a local church?

I'm so the same way...can't do it at times.

Call the water company and they'll tell you how much and give you the address and account number when it's time to pay, OK?

Even if not opening, try to put it all in the same spot.

I agree that having someone there with you is good if possible. If not, how about having an internet friend sit with you in IM while you open and you can tell them what they say and they can make sure you're reading it right, etc. Is that possible?

I want to clarify...I'm sure you would read it right. It just helps my anxiety to know that someone else is verifying and getting the same thing I am. Makes it more managable.

Love,

KD

(((((((((((((((((((((Zorah))))))))))))))))))))))))) I wish I had an answer for you other than to maybe set up some type of automatic pay system with the utilities so you know the bills have been taken care of.

If you call the water company they will tell you what your bill is and where to send the money.

The government also has people that can help you get all your identification back. You may start with motor vehicles or social security.

I wish I was more help and I hope you get the help you need. Please just take care that you continue to control how and where your money is spent. Even very well intentioned people can be led astray.

(((((((((((((Zorah)))))))))) I can relate to this so much. I have an extreme problem with this, most especially if it is a new bill that the brain isn't accustomed to paying. Often I find that regular bills have been paid unaware but then others get overlooked. It's so everwhelming isn't it.

Do you have anyone there that can help you organize your bills? Maybe T? My T goes over mine periodically to help me stay in check. I also pay a lot of bills online or by phone by a paper list because of lost bills.

I'm so sorry you are struggling with this too. It's hard, I know. For me, it's also hard to trust anyone with knowing exactly how much I have due to some past issues.

Good luck to you Zorah and try to reach out to someone for help in this. They don't have to know all the details to help. Unable to open snail mail Unable to open snail mail
