Hello all,
I’m a soldier, I served in a specialised infantry role for 4.5 years, about 4 years ago I transferred to be a mechanic for the services, as I got pretty badly injured while deployed. I’m recovering well, but it’s been a tough road so far.
Recently I’ve found myself in a spot of trouble, things haven’t gone well at home while I was deployed, both of my grandparents died. This has affected me and my family massively, and between struggling with mental health issues, work stress, trying to keep up with rent on my apartment for my partner and me, and just life in general, I’ve found myself in £8,000 of debt. I saw offers for loans as easy get out of jail free cards, and I was too stupid and caught up emotionally at the time to realise that they’re just traps.
As it stands I can’t find a way of paying this off, I’m not the cleverest, and I’m young. So I’m trying this as a Hail Mary in the hopes that someone will help me out. Genuinely, every little helps.
I haven’t told my partner about this, as far as they know everything is ok. I just can’t bring myself to tell them that we simply don’t have money at the moment, and I’m scared that if I do, I’ll lose them and therefore I’ll have to let the apartment go too.
Having this off my chest would help me so, so much. I’d be able to focus on my job instead of digging myself a deeper and deeper hole, my relationship would effectively be saved, I could literally get my life back on track and be actually happy for the first time in a long time.
So please, whoever reads this, I hope you’re able to find it in your heart to help me out on this matter.
