I'm just under I spose Feel sick thinking about it, it's far too easy to get credit when you're too young and dumb to know what you're commiting to 
I had a fucking good time getting into mine but not enjoying paying it or missing paying it etc

Dont worry about it. You only live once. I have 10k-ish student loan debt plus £1500 odd on credit cards and frankly I dont really care .
I've got a good degree and lots of ace memories to show for it. Id be more depressed if I had been a hermit for my youth and had no debt.

I am sitting at about 7K all in. Two loans for cars and then credit card, store card and wheel finance on Coupe. At least I got something to show for my debts but looking to clear them soon.

I hate being in debt too, I have a couple of credit cards, which are under control and also my student loan which is around 6-7K 
But now i have full time job i am working out a plan to pay all my credit cards etc off asap and just be with my student loan..
Being in you overdraft all the time is soooo depressing, can't wait for the day i goto the hole in the wall and it doesn't laugh at me for 10mins, and saying piss off you have no money.
