And god bless you too Jilly. Glad to see you have posted - we have all been wondering how you are....hopefully no more smashing otherwise you'll run out of crockery. I find a good trip to the bottle bank gets my frustration out - I try and smash them as hard as possible in the bin!

Unfortunately it doesn't matter how fast technology is these days it still needs a human to work the process and that is usually the delay. I hope you get some answers soon.

Money can be a source of pleasure too when it is all ok so hopefully when this horrible mess is all over for you you can begin to focus on the better things in life and enjoy what you have.

You don't have to fix your heart right now - that will do it itself over time - you just focus on being kind to yourself and take what help and support is there for you.

Take care and look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Hi Jilly.09

I am so glad to know that you have come back onto the forum as I have been thinking of you over the past few days. I can only agree with everything that people are saying. People on here are a great support to one another.

I can't pretend to know what you are going through at this time but I would like to.offer my love and support to you. If I can help in any way please just let me know. Even if it is just somebody to.vent your feelings to. I offer you the hand of friendship right now and we can talk off the forum if you want.

Take care my friend and remember what I have said as I mean it.

Thinking of you and God Bless you too x

Morning Jilly. Just checking to see if you had posted saying "hi". I've wondered whether you think this is kind of a weird or maybe even an overwhelming thing - so many people really caring about someone we don't even know? I think a lot of us - including myself connected with 1 bit, some or even most what you've said, through our own lived experiences at some part of life's journey, and I doubt whether any of us have sailed through years in our IVA's without some major hiccup or even catastrophe. The thing is that we are here, and we are posting because somehow, we managed to get through, and some are still fighting through. I can't want to speak for everyone, but I'm guessing that we are willing you on because we feel there is a way through for you too. The great thing about this forum is that we can choose to be anonymous, and share very personal, intimate details of our lives - some that aren't even being shared with our closest friends or family. I've shared stuff on here I never thought I would, but it feels so safe and my 'forum family' are accepting, loving, embracing, knowledgeable, practical, and so much more, and have got me through very dark periods - darker than they even realize. Please don't think there is any pressure to have to post on here, but I do hope you keep reading - unless you want to post and tell me to pee off!! x

Hi Jilly there is a lot of love and support coming your way. Hopefully you are popping on each day to check in and you are picking the messages up. People are always on here over the weekend too so don't worry about it being a closed shop over the weekend! :-)

Hi Jilly, I'm new on here, but we've been in debt for a few years now and we are just about to go on to an IVA. All I can say is I'm so sorry things look bad for you atm, but they will get better. If you have to sell your house at least you'll be out of debt and can start with a clean slate. Hope you are ok. x

Hello you lovely people, I have been over whelmed with the love and support I have had on here, 'thankyou all so much' xxxx I have managed to get through this week, with all the worry and the stress, many tears and sleepless nights, I am just waiting now to see what happens with the creditors etc, no dates set yet, and the waiting game is the worst really, I feel so insecure and vulnerable at the moment, but I am trying so hard to plod on daily. I know I am not the only one who is going through this, and I feel guilty for moaning about my problems, when life for some people is so much worse, and now I want to apologise for my first thread, and I want you all to know that like many of you I will get through this matter and hopefully came out the other end, feeling relieved and wiser. God Bless you all, and thankyou again for your kind words. Lets pray for the safe return of an innocent little girl April Jones aged 5. xxxxxxxx (puts things into perspective, when we hear about these kind of things happening) xxxxxxxx

Hi, Glad you are feeling better and don't apologise for your first post. We all have our dark days and this forum is a great place for a virtual shoulder and hug.
