(((( Monica )))) you need for someone to wrap their arms around you and say they are there for you. Even just to hold your hand as you go through this.
I don’t have advice. I’m the last person to give it to you. I don’t know enough about your specifics or your system there. It must be horrible to feel so alone in this. A lot of us couldn’t stop til we hit the financial brick wall. But you are facing such terrible consequences all alone it hardly seems fair. I feel your pain 🙁 and frankly feel quite useless that I don’t have something to say that will help. Some magic cure that will refund you all the money you ever spent. But we know that won’t ever happen. Something has to give though or you are going to have a nervous break down. If you aren’t already having one. Wish I was around the corner instead of around the world. I’m so glad that Vera and I did it and 3raser have been around. Just hang in there.
And maybe step work is a bit intense for you right now. You guys have been setting a blistering pace. On top of everything you have going on right now. Maybe a little slower. And I’ve always understood they don’t have to be in a row necessarily. I’ve cried in GA, seen it often actually. It’s more often a woman, and seeing as GA is more men, you may feel like no one does.
As far as Step Change, well it won’t hurt to talk to them and hear what they have to say. Maybe they can help negotiate time for you. It’s in the best interest of your creditors to let you recover and use your education. If they bankrupt you they aren’t going to get much if anything. What you are going through is terrifying and I’m sorry again that you have to do it alone. But know that we are all here rooting for you to pull through this. Take care, Laura
