If you need someone right now
From people who came through it
“I know you're scared and the letters keep coming. I've been there, hiding the post, lying about why the phone rang. What helped me was telling one person, just one, and asking for help with the paperwork. The debt charity lady didn't judge me. She just made a list. Start with one letter. One call. That's all. You're not a bad person for struggling. You're just a person who needs a hand. And you can do this, even when it feels impossible.”
