hi everyone, im new here, and i think im slowly getting into debt. Heres my background, I just recently got out of a abusive marriage, and i plan on moving right out of town, i have a on call job here but does not pay much, trying to get a job in the big city, moving their at the end of the month, but right now i am struggling bigtime, im living on my credit card and not sure how to pay all my bills, i just feel so overwhelmed. I go to bed worrying, wake up worrying, all for a piece of paper, its making me sick, I hope soon enough i will get back on my feet again, but in the meantime it feels awful, i hate having to use credit cards, but right now i have no choice. thanks for letting me vent.

It is very important that you pay for all Essential items.

Rent, food, utilities, car payment, secured loans then, for now, whatever is left over make a credit card payment.

Maybe skip a couple of payments to catch up.

Good luck
