We are drowning in debt......dont know what to do?
We have been hit so hard with car problems, hospital bills, medication, etc. I have bipolar disorder, and also fibromyalgia, my boyfriend has a terrible back problem and has had to miss tons of work. We had to take out 3 different loans for 500.00 each, I get paid on the 3rd, they are all due at the same time, I dont have any way to pay them, I dont know what to do, this is terribly affecting our relationship, we are both so scared and frustrated, what do we do??

I suggest following the advise of the previous posters.
Cover all life-essentials first. Then sit down with each bill you have- EVERY one of them, and begin to write letters to each one. Type them if possible.
Hospital bills- almost every hospital offers "free beds" meaning, that they have the ability to forgive some bills, but you must ask for it. they will send you paperwork to explain in detail your hardship.
loans- every lender can forgive, or at least cut you a break, like differ 3 months payments, by tacking it to the end of the loan.Again, you need to ask.
car dealers- always ask for a payment plan, even $20.00 per month until you can devote more money to the bill.
To stop the cycle- stop getting loans, stop applying for credit, you are digging deeper and deeper and it will be even harder to get out.
You have the ability to stop this. And as long as you are honest with your debtors- and try to pay- even $5.00 per month, you are still a good customer and not a deadbeat who just doesn't pay.
Everyone knows you can't get blood from a stone- and your creditors know this all too well- no matter how much they may strong arm you into giving them all you have. Look at your budget and after the priority items are covered- pay what you can, when you can.
You need to eat, get gas, have power and be healthy. Priority.
So, tomorrow am- make phone calls, write letters and always document everything for proof you are trying to make it right.
You two need to stop thinking about this tonight, and go watch a good movie and relax. Sitting and thinking about the debt all night will give you a bad nights sleep.
You will conquer this together and it will be better. Starting right now.
All my best.

Step 1: don't panic.

Step 3: Start a budget.
Write down everything you'll spend money on this month:
Groceries
Rent
Car payment
entertainment
debt repayment,
etc.

Nobody gets a dime until the essentials are paid:
Food
Shelter
Clothing
Transportation
Utilities.

Then throw every extra dime you can at this.

Okay - first, you two need to understand that finances is the #1 reason couples argue -- do not let this destroy something good.

Second - You have medical bills. You can not pay them all at once BUT you can pay them what you can AFFORD until the debts are paid. That is legal and they can not harrass you for not paying.

It may take time, but pay those bills off a little at a time. It also sounds like you may be looking for better jobs with better pay.

1. Write down your debts/balances and when the payment is due.
2. After your living expenses are paid, apply more to one of the bills and pay the smaller amounts to the others. Once one bill is paid - start with the next bill ... and so on.

It does work!

Stick together - it will only make you stronger!

First of all- take a deep breath and calm yourself. You're not the only people (by far) who are going through this right now.

Second, you need to contact your creditors right away. Let them know that you're having trouble paying, but you want to pay- and let them know why. I've worked in credit departments before and anyone you speak with on the phone is a human being. They understand what it's like to be sick and miss work, or have the car break down at a really bad time, etc. If the first person you speak with can't help you, don't be afraid to speak with someone else or ask for a supervisor. Ask if you can work out some payment plan, especially with medical bills, because hospitals are very familiar with people who can't pay very much.

If your boyfriend is unable to work, perhaps he should apply social security disability or welfare.
You can also call Legal Aid and see what they can do for you.

Think good before you vote,hope there will no more bush for voting.

you must be living your life by example of the United States Government

when you reach 9.6 trillion dollars in debt, you can run for President - based on your Economic Experience

just - watch out for Hillary on the way.

I believe the current President has bipolar disorder as well - and he's quite popular well half of the time.
