I've been unemployed for a little over a year. Unable to find a job, think my previous employer (state of Illinois) might be black-balling me. (Anyone know how to find that out for sure?....and what to do about it?)..Any way, I'm over $13,000 in debt to a major credit card company.....also owe aprox $5500 on a personal loan through a financial institution. The credit card company calls just about every day. I explained my situation to them from the beginning, but it didn't do any good. Now I just don't answer the phone. They've sent three letters saying they will turn me over to their attorneys, or place my account with a third party for collection. I have no money whatsoever or I'd file bankrupcy. Had great credit up until I lost my job. Is there any way out of this mess? I also have insulin dependent diabetes (for the last 20 years) and depression and can't get on any government assistance except foodstamps if that factors into anything. Thanks for all serious answers.
