It's so hard to start recovery with financial and other problems to deal with at the same time. I know what you are going through.
About 7 years ago, I found myself in huge credit card debt and could not see a way out. I contacted a credit counselling service (if you look for one make sure they are legit and non profit). They really helped. My payments became one low monthly payment and in 4 years everything was paid off. They really can work with credit card companies and lower or remove the interest on your cards. I thought I would let you know that it did work for me. It saved me from bankruptcy.
Make sure that you concentrate mostly on yourself and being good to yourself. Try not to be side tracked with other issues. The most important thing is your health and well being.
Hang in there Daisy
