I'm up to my eyeballs in debt and have considered ending my life | The Sun

DEAR DEIDRE: I AM up to my eyes in debt and think it would be better for everyone if I wasn’t here.

The worry of everything keeps me awake at night.

I am a 52-year-old woman. I am a wife, a mum of two and work full time as a care home manager.

I try to work extra hours, but this affects my relationship. I have an individual voluntary arrangement in place, but I still cannot manage.

The feeling of shame is sometimes overwhelming, but I cannot declare myself bankrupt as my dad lives in an annexe and that would make him homeless.

I have seriously considered ending my life.

If I wasn’t here I wouldn’t be a burden on anyone. I don’t know where to turn.

DEIDRE SAYS: I understand your desperation.

Worrying about money can negatively affect your mental health so please don’t struggle alone when help is available.

Talk to your doctor about your suicidal thoughts and do call the Samaritans any time you feel depressed (samaritans.org, 116123).

My support pack Solving Debt Problems gives details of organisations which can help you too.
