โFor whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. The worst part was payment plans with three providers. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Free debt advice was the best call I made. They dealt with the creditors for me. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โTo whoever needs this: I was where you are this time last year. The worst part was rationing my insulin. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.โ
โHello from the other side of it. In 2023, that was me. I remember goFundMe and the shame of it like it was yesterday. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does.โ
