I filed bankruptcy today. I had gone to consumer credit counseling earlier in the week and they had suggested that I file because of my debt. I saw the lawyer today and got the ball rolling on everything. My parents actually gave me the money to pay the lawyer. I've never asked for money from them before.

I just can't wait to get out from under this stuff so I'm not worried sick all the time. I hate it that my credit will be ruined though

dented, yes, ruined, no.... It will take time, but you get to start clean :)


That is a great move forward, good for you!

Thanks, I hope so!!!!! My parents had acutally filed a few years ago which I didn't know about. They said it made life easier.
