Filing bankruptcyAlthough filing bankruptcy can be a viable solution to deal with your debt, it can still have an impact on your emotions. If you are contemplating filing bankruptcy or are in the middle of dissolving your debts, there are several things you can do to manage the stress that is often associated with this process and cope with the emotions you are dealing with.

  • Exercise- Participating in physical activity for at least 30 minutes a day can help you maintain your health during the filing process. It also gives you the opportunity to focus your mind on other things, relieve any stress you are experiencing, and help you feel happier overall.
  • Talk with Others- For many, filing bankruptcy is a process that makes them feel extremely ashamed. However, you should keep in mind that financial difficulties are a common problem, and you should not be afraid to talk about the bankruptcy process with your friends, family members, and loved ones as you see fit.
  • Develop a Financial Plan- Once the filing process is over, you have the opportunity to start over again financially. While you are in the midst of the bankruptcy process, keep this in mind and start working on a plan that will help you realize your financial goals.
