I lost 7.2 lakh in a Cryptocurrency scam. Now, I'm unable to find happiness in anything because of the guilt. It's even affecting my personal and professional life. I don't have a consistent job, and hence, taking a loan to recover is not the way out because I won't be able to make timely repayments. What's the solution?
Ans: Dear Md,
I can't advice you on how to get out of your debt but I can certainly tell you what you can do to get a hold of your happiness.
Guilt is an emotion that keeps you busy and stressed for a long time so that you have little or no time to do anything productive to ease your stress. What's the point feeling guilty? It was a scam and you were not aware of it; mistake! Get over it and find a way to tell yourself that you will allow yourself to be scammed again.
This is not the time to feel unhappy but to make the most of how to get out of this situation.
So, pull yourself up, plan on how to get out of this debt and know that your mind will always be alert the next time when there is a scamster around.
The solution that you seek is: Dust yourself, look ahead, plan and execute meticulously. Clearing the mind can gradually help you clear your debt as well.
Best wishes!
