bill,

read the earlier posts, he’s upside down on the car (as is everyone a car is a crazy thing to finance). Which puts him between a rock and hard place, so he’s stuck with it…

Dude, sell the car!

To help you get some perspective… go rent “In Pursuit of Happyness”. This a true story and it will help you get some perspective that you are not that bad off after all.

Helps to do a reality check every so often.

spending money on popcorn and a movie is not being wasteful, you can only live on a really tight budget for so long. think about setting aside some money just for yourself, to spend on whatever you want with no guilt.
it’s probably a good time to start to add some other interests into your life, please don’t put off life until you have reached some financial milestone, life is too short for that, you don’t have to have it all together, (no one else does!)

what you are describing sounds like what can be part of a vicious cycle, if you deny yourself to strictly there is more chance that of breaking out in some way.

you are really hard on yourself a lot of the time, give yourself a break! are you still seeing the couselor? it might be good to talk through this next stage, which is about making a lifestyle changes that you can maintain over time and developing a life outside of this debt reduction world,

PS, DK — I second Jim — your life is way out of balance, and this is a prime symptom of whatever disease that you have. I have it too, and you really need to set up firewalls and compartmentalize your life. That is what sucessful people do.
