I'm probably going to kill myself. Not because I want to- because I have to.



I don't believe that it is my time just yet, and I have some personal goals I wish I could have fulfilled. However, my school debts are too great. What's more, is my best friend fucked me over, and stopped paying rent. She stopped paying in April. She's fled, and left me with 100% of the debt, even though none of it is mine. I've been paying my part.

Either way, if I never show up here again, just know this wasn't my design.

@Intelligent_Lobster, that's no good - I don't want you to go before you're ready, not because of some bills! Can we talk about other options? Including: What happens if you don't pay these bills?

Don't do it because of debt. You're young, plenty of young people have debt. Go after those goals. You can always start paying the debt back later if you have to.

I'm going to court on Monday, and I'm praying the judge understands the situation I'm in currently.

I'm not sure what else I can do, if it all falls back on me. I have an internet bill that just keeps piling, because they owe me 200$ on that, because I was an idiot and I told them they could get me back once they became employed. I also have thousands in school debt I'm currently repaying, and now it looks like I'll have to pay thousands of dollars in rent, because there were only two people on the lease, but three people paying. So at the very least, I'll have to pay half what they owe, + what I'm already paying monthly. I can't handle the stress of this, and it will be 5+ years before I can dig my way out of this mess. I can't stand 5 years of crippling financial anxiety. Not to mention that I'm scheduled to get a costly surgery early next year (top surgery), and it seems like it's going to be impossible now.

Oh, and to too it all off? I hate my college program, and all I can find for work at the moment is a part time service job at a retail store. I don't see any way out of this, besides adjusting my suicide plans. I absolutely refuse to die without breath removal though, so I'd pity the person to find my body.

Don't do it because of debt. You're young, plenty of young people have debt. Go after those goals. You can always start paying the debt back later if you have to.

I really don't think I can get out of this. Not without facing severe anxiety, and at that point I might as well be dead.

They're taking me to court this week, and the government is going to crack down on me soon after. I don't see how being young will help me. I have no parents to fall back on, I don't even have a house to live in if I get evicted.

sorry to hear you in are this situation; i was recently taken to court by a debt collector for a huge credit card debt and i have huge student loans as well so i feel you.

perhaps you can still turn things around? have you signed up for an income based repayment plan on your student loans?
is there no hope of finding another person looking for a place to stay? like craigslist or a roommate site?

 

[Soul]

I'm sorry, @Intelligent_Lobster! That's a lot of stress. The school loans aren't urgent yet, though, right? It's the mess with the back rent that will need to be dealt with fast? Have you considered a "go fund me" type of page to help with that? Maybe you could even offer a stay in your flat to people who donate a lot.

I'm sorry if that's a stupid idea - I just woke up but I want to help.

Right, the student loans aren't urgent yet.

I thought about making a go fund me, but I don't really have friends, and I'm not on social media.

The hearing is in about 6 hours. I ended up partying last night, and I met someone. I might stick around long enough to see this relationship through- she really swept me off my feet.

Let us know how the hearing goes, okay? And hurrah about being swept off your feet. x

It went incredibly awful. They wouldn't explain anything to me, and when I started crying out of frustration, they handed me a McDonald's napkin and just said "budget cuts". I owe almost $5,000, and they treated me like I was 12, because I'm pretty young(just graduated college).

They wouldn't take any of my evidence against my shithole roommates, and I have to pay it by the 18th of this month.

It's funny, because now I'm just playing a waiting game. They'll take me to court again, once I don't pay (I'm working a part time job). If they're rude again, they'll take 50% of my pay, until the dawn of time because I make $14 an hour.

What if you are not young. What if you have only, say,,ten years or so...what if you're a boomer without anyone? What if...what if?

 

[LegaliseIt!]

Gawd! Capitalism is so ugly!

Everyone wonders why young people have lost all hope?

Perhaps because they take out loans to go to uni, only to end up working 3 minimum wage jobs with no benefits and no hope of owning a home, marrying or having a family!
Only a squalid daily slog enduring soul sucking verbal abuse from those with hereditary wealth. I wish that I was exaggerating.

Sorry to hear. What's your situation? I definitely don't have all the answers but maybe I could help with some more details.

Maybe if they didn't major in useless garbage, they could get a real job instead of trying to live off of 3 mcjobs.
