Im not in a good place lately

Im not in a good place lately

I've been struggling with a problem in my life for awhile. I find that it consumes me more and more as the days go on the past 6 months. I was accused of a crime I did not commit and found to be telling the truth in a court of law. For some reason, in criminal law, unless you sue the bill falls to the innocent. The bill is large, large enough that I will be 109 before I can pay it off whilst paying off a mortgage as well. The weight of the times I went through and the debt makes it worse. I don't sleep very well and Im a lot more unhappy than I have ever been. I'm resentful of the person who made the accusation walked away free of scrutiny. I feel so angry towards the justice system and no respect for the police. Every night I pray I do not wake up and sad as it makes my wife, it feels a better option. I see little joy anymore.

Hey @Hateful_Job

Welcome to the forums. I am glad you have come here to share some of what you have been carrying and will hopefully find some great support here.

It sounds like you have been through a tremendus amount this past few months and I can only imagine how it has taken its toll.

It sounds like you're sitting with some really heavy feelings so I really encourage you to keep connecting and finding support - here, or elsewhere (like a theraist, family, friends).

You can also reach out to the SANE Help Centre (1800 18 7263, Mon-Fri, 10am-10pm) to speak to a counsellor, or Lifeline (13 11 14, 24/7) for crisis support.

Take care,

Basil (Moderator)

Quick update of sorts. I realise after being rejected by all aspects of government, I will be in debt for my entire life. Ive begged them for help, but they said what they did was allowed and I have to accept the debt. I pray I don't wake up everyday.

Hey there @Hateful_Job,

I'm glad to see you back here. Gosh, it sounds like a stressful situation to be in and I can see it is making you feel pretty hopeless. I want to encourage you to ring a helpline for some one-on-one professional support. It sounds like a lot to carry on your own.

SANE Help Centre: 1800 18 7263 (Mon-Fri, 10am-10pm)

Lifeline: 13 11 14 (24hrs)

Lifeline are a joke. Guess who supports them? the NSW Police. I see a mental health specialist but it doesn't change my thinking. Not until its all made right. Which will happen in 59 years.

The only way I can remove this burden is pray that I do not wake up one day. I've lost $800k or more in potential earnings. If I cop was on fire, I would not help them. the government does not care at all. Neither do I. No help in the world can help me but the money they owe.
