My partner massively ripped me off just after Xmas I’ve been struggling along since - just checked my bank balance and I’ve got £1. One fucking quid.

I’ve got revenue coming in on Monday but I feel like giving up. My anxiety is strangling me.

I’m not in any debt on mortgage but 15 days behind on car.

Any one got any rock bottom stories but it turned around to cheer me up SadWine

Probably not much help but when my business was on its arse I threw my cards in and walked away.
I’ll never recover from it financially but it’s still not a decision I regret.
I’m in a job I love now so there’s light at the end of the tunnel
Not much help sorry!

Dp and his business partner scraped along for 3 years in their original business not earning much. Eventually sold it with little profit. The next business initially did well but crashed out after a debacle with a fake investor. Their 3rd business is doing very well and he is now massively out earning me.

Things can get better, but if the business isn't succeeding then don't think you can't move on to something else.

I did a complete rebrand and re opened, which went really well til late last year, when revenue dropped off and I sold up. Talk to an insolvency practitioner that might help

Your MH is much more important
