Crippling Tags

Well. Truth be told, I'm desperate, hence the begging. I barely make the rent, and every bill I've had the last year has gone do creditors. I'm not able to pay child support, so whatever little welfare money I get is taken to pay off state debts. I'm unemployed and can't find the energy or the courage to get back into the job market. The reason for all this is crippling anxiety. I haven't bought clothes in two years, and pretty much everything I have is falling apart. I'm afraid I'll lose my apartment, there's just not anything to fall back on. So, I'm begging. Instead of having to face people and ask for help, I'm asking you. Please, if you can spare anything, you'll help me pay some bills, help me get back on my feet and hopefully, some day, be able to go to an interview in whole clothes.

Hi my name is Anne, I live in a small house, nothing special, but I am in deep trouble over my taxes, I have always paid someone to do my income tax as I have never fully underdstood them. But he said I had to pay, so I made the money over to him, pleased that the work was done. But instead of paying my taxes he stole my money,and now I am in trouble because nothing was paid in full for the last two years. All my money is gone and I have been told there is very little I can do, even when they arrest him .because they think the money will be gone. I have two children studying and a tax bill of €6000,00 which is about $ 7800.00 , I do not have this, and I cannot find the money, they have said I can pay in monthly instalments but the amount they want every month is crippling me, it means I am having to leave other bills unpaid, I just cannot meet my other commitments, because the taxman goes first, As my husband left us some years ago and his alimoney is sporadic I work fulltime, but I cannot earn more than I do. We are not perfect, I would love not to pay taxes, but I have my whole life, and as a family enjoy the benefits they bring. Please help me to try and lower this debt, so I can sleep at night, instead of waking up in a cold sweat. I have always believed that if you work hard and do your best God helps them that help themselves, so please people, I do work hard but I can only earn so much per month. God bless you and thank you for taking the time to reading this.

I’ve never asked for any kind of help before, and certainly not from people that I have never met! But my situation has become so desperate that I really do need help.
I have, for the last 15 years, struggled to make ends meet, following periods of ill-health, bad luck and catastrophic decision making. My circumstances are now very desperate indeed, and have even considered suicide.
In 1997 I suffered from a period of depression, that became so severe that I was forced to give up my job, and borrowed money to cover my mortgage and keep my house. Unfortunately the repayments on this ever increasing debt snowballed, and I found myself unable to meet my mortgage and household bills. I had ploughed my life savings into the home, and lost it all.
In 2006 I was approached by a friend, who was concerned for my financial circumstances, and suggested that we buy an old property, renovate it and sell it for a profit. I was desperate to make some money, and trusted my friend. I would refer you to full details of this in my Beg, as the project ended in complete failure having been ripped off by an unscrupulous builder. Work that should have taken 3 months took in excess of 9, and I ended up carrying out all the work myself. I regularly worked at the house from the early hours until well past midnight. The long hours left me exhausted, and in October 2008 I had a breakdown. I simply couldn’t carry on, and collapsed at work. My employer at the time was an unforgiving and vindictive man, and he said that I would be suspended if my work didn’t improve. I was afraid that I would lose my job, and under considerable psychological pressure from my employer I was forced to resign.
Following the failed business venture, which had plunged me into further debt, my breakdown and subsequent loss of my job, I simply couldn’t cope and pushed me into a long period of depression that became so severe that I planned to take my life. At the time I was so ill that I was unable to hold down a job, and this simply added to my woes - whilst out of work and undergoing intensive counselling I borrowed further. By the end of 2009 I was £15,000 ($23,250) in debt. I desperately want to rebuild my life now, but it is difficult to do so when I am saddled with a debt that is crippling me. Between 2009 and December 2010 my debt increased - there is no answer to it, and I will never ever me able to clear the £18,000 ($27,900) that I now owe. It is a debt that cripples me and prevents me from having a normal, happy life. I am 50 in February 2012, but have no future. I am tired of being worried, stressed, unable to sleep, and being depressed. Please, please help me start my life all over again. Please read my full story, and contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.

To the kind people of the world,
I am writing this to you as a last effort to aid in my families dire situation. 4 years ago I was diagnosed with Spondylolisthesis, A chronic and crippling disease of the spine. As a father of a 3 year old, this disease renders me unable to do a lot with my son. Social Security Disability has denied me, and to add to it, we have no health insurance.
I find it hard to work due to the constant pain of my disease. I cannot afford treatment, nor am I able to keep up with my current bills. (which is not "out side my means of living", but are basic needs. Electricity, HEAT (in these very frigid times in upstate NY). We had 2 phones given to us last year from medicaid, all which are exhausted of minutes from calling looking for work.
My fiance Has finished school leaving her with student loans to be paid back in an ever so declining job market. This does not help our situation. We are very capable of working with in our means, but to no avail.
This will be my sons first Christmas where he actually knows something is going on. We have unfortunately had to cancel all lay a ways, and events we had planned for this holiday season. Our thanksgiving consisted of canned soup and baked beans. (not to sound materialistic) but it was heart wrenching to me, thinking to myself, " I cannot provide for my family"
Then, with all these situations plaguing us, our car becomes in operable. With more repairs than the car is worth. We are now left, in danger of not only having our heat and electricity shut off, but we face eviction unless we can come up with back rent owed of 4 months. We do not blame this on our landlord, as she lives in the same times as us. Her hand will be forced to evict us.
I have never brought myself to do such a thing like this, asking for money. But I guess I am hoping that there are still caring individuals in this world that can extend a hand to a fellow human being. So with the greatest humility I ask of you to donate what you can. This is not a long term goal to just see how much I can "panhandle". I am a 29 year old man, sitting typing in tears, at a public library. This is my last hope. We have sold everything we owned in order to keep our heads above water.
Please, I can not stand to look at the wonderful smile on my 3 year old son, and know inside that I am running out of options.
The most important of all is our back rent though at 350 a month times 4 gives me an outstanding balance of 1400

I am actually going insane! I dont know what to do anymore! my husbands walked out on me and my two daughters 3 years ago leaving us in crippling debt! before he left i was working all the hours under the sun and whilst he paid nothing, i paid everything, being on my own, i cant work that much but still work full time which does not bring in enough money! i am behind on my rent and bills as i am borrowing from here to pay here and backwards and forwards! i am so desperate to go back to studying, all i want is a life of working hard for my kids and making them proud of me in the end! i live so far away from any family and friends as i moved so far away when my husband started beating me. I am desperate for any sort of help. I wouldnt even mind a loan to catch up and that i could pay back that would take the pressure off! i love my kids to bits but cant be a good mother to them right now as all i am constantly thinking about is how to save us! i am so desperate it is embarassing! i have skills and am willing to work for people or anything! i am not a lazy person and have alwyas worked and have just hit rock bottom and dont know how to get out of this mess! please someone help us!!!! my studying has come to a standstill as i can no longer afford the fees! I wouldnt even mind a sponsor just for my studies! please help! xx

I am a single dad with 2 children. My eldest daughter is autistic. Their mother sadly passed away age 41 in 2006. I have a mortgaged house and am a full time carer and unable to work. We are haveing a terrible time with local neigjbours and the locals in general. We are being victimised and my property and car have been vandleised many times. Neighbours have caused criminal damage to my front door and thrown oblects at our windows. They have trashed my car and written it off in the past. They have let tyres down over night and ruined my windscreen on a previous car by fireing airgun pellets at it. This intimidation has been going on for several years. It has got a point now where it is affecting our lives and our health. We are living here in fear. Just a couple of days ago someone has caused serious damge to the hatchback of my car overnight. Just a few weeks ago someone painted a skull and crossbonesin front of our house. They have thrown things at our windows in the middle of the night. The police cannot take any action because we cant prove who is doing it. I now fear for the safety of myself and my 2 children. I would like to sell my modest house(which needs several repairs) and move into a rented house as i cannot get a mortgage as i am in my 50s and a carer. I have no savings whatsoever. I need around £7.000 to secure a rented place and to pay off some crippling debts. Please could anyone help in any way. We desperately need to move for our sanity and safety. My autistic daughter is suffering because of this and.my son has lost all confidence in himself and is developing depression. Please help in any way you can. I genuinely fear for our safety here.thankyou for takeing the time to read this cry for help. And please contact me if you can help in ANY way. We must get away from here. Peace and God bless you.

My name is Janice and I am a 28 yr/old woman suffering from crippling social and general anxiety as well as depression. I have been out of work for nearly three months and I am unable to pay any bills, buy medication or even take public transit. I am by no means lazy, and actually have an Accounting degree, but the the job market has been VERY unkind to me.

My last position was as a retail clerk (6 yrs), which I left due to my disorders listed above and poor working conditions. I've tried everything: applying for disability, unemployment.....nothing has been successful so far.

I live at home with my mother, but I can tell she is at her wits end. She is embarrassed by my condition and thinks that it is just something I can shake off or pray away. In October, I landed myself in the ER twice (severe depressive episode).

I have nowhere else to turn. I've sold just about everything I can on ebay and the money has quickly run out. I'm anxiously awaiting tax return time and/or a new job opportunity (hence the date of 2/2011 above). My goal is to make at least $600 to hold me over until then.

Please, if you or someone else has the means to donate to me, I would be so thankful.

Hi'

I am a 28 year old woman who suffers from crippling social anxiety and depression. I had to quit my retail job because of my struggle with these disorders.

I'm currently on medication and trying to devise a plan to get better.

I have my degree in Accounting, but if I could only get through my mental obstacles.

I live at home with my mother and don't drive..... and I'm seeing a psych to improve my situation.

Any donations would be great. Even literally 25 cents. Thank you so much for your help.

Would you take a moment and just send $5.00?

Trying to make ends meet and pay of credit card and student loan debt, which eats up all of the monthly income. If each person would simply send a few dollars, this crippling debt would be paid off and closed in a few short years.

All of the money sent will be used to pay of this debt...donations of over $1,000 will receive a special handmade gift send directly to you.
