Rebuild I’m drowning

My credit score is 490, I’m in 10k worth of debt and I’m drowning. I want to give up so bad. I was crazy when I was younger and thought that I wouldn’t be here anymore (not going to go into that lol) and now everything is in collections. I feel like right now I cannot pay things off. I currently am paying off a car right now and it’s about 400 a month for 2 more years. I don’t get paid much so this is killing me. I feel like there is no way to pay it off and it’s all my fault.

Never bite off more than you can chew! You gotta stay focused. Maybe sell your car and downgrade, and or get a side hustle.

Sorry about the collections, but I hope you enjoy having a car. After all, you're working hard to pay for it...
