I'm so deprrssed and I'm afraid going to the depression forum will just make me more depressed. I've been working myself to death to try to get out of debt and lost several months income because of the pandemic. I'm going to lose my home and everything I've worked for. My family is horrible and I can't see any reason for my life. I grew up in a violent family and managed to drag myself out of poverty only to end up like this. None of it was worth it.

Sorry if this depressing. I don't know what to do anymore.

Unfortunately, when my attempt resulted in a hospital bill in the hundreds of thousands of $ (fortunately, I can no longer remember the exact amount--somewhere over $200K), I ended up filing for bankruptcy. In my experience, filing for bankruptcy caused a lot of anxiety and guilt, but once it was over, it did give give me a fresh start. Owing money causes a lot of legitimate worry. I am sorry about what you are going through. I am also sorry to hear that you are losing your home. This is a tough time to lose your home. Your depression is natural and understandable. IMO poverty is a type of trauma. We can all only withstand so much. Sending prayers your way.

Are you seriously going to file for bankruptcy? You can do that and protect your house so you dont lose it.
