OMG, we filed today but I am still so stressed out, what the hell?

[Freddy03]

So the prep work is all done and we filed today but my brain does not seem to want to de-stress in the least bit. Anyone else know what I mean? My wife and I are still so wired with the whole process that my frickin back started giving me these charming muscle spasms two days ago; feels just like a pro-boxer giving me a kidney shot, randomly but regularly... Joy. Muscle relaxer pills from doc today have me not twitching too often.

I do not understand this at all. Our lawyer says we pass the means test, our stuff is exempt/we should be a no asset chap 7, our documentation is all done/solid, so why the hell is my body still so insanely wired? As our meltdown last year got worse, my wife and I started taking a swell drug called Prozac just to be able to function and work. After we decide to pull the trigger, I went through lots of great shame/embarassment/fear, and now that it looks like we are close to a happy ending, my body seems to just want to freak out, wtf...

Any of you gone through anything like this? I'm wiped out...

I felt the same way. I had no sense of relief after I filed. It's been about 2 weeks since I filed and I'm still freaking out. I guess I'll settle down once I'm discharged..lol

Good Luck to you!

Thanks Freddy03, looks like our timing is the same, hopefully we can both sail through to the land of happy endings soon/at the same time... :o)

Congrats on your filing NotForSale, we should (hopefully) finish our BKs at about the same time! Sad but true, the Prozac has made a massive difference in my stress levels and has made it possible to keep working on moving ahead... Wish you and yours only the best, maybe this will all be over in another few months, right? :o)

Understand your stress. We filed CH7 on 3/1/11. Our 341 was on 4/1/11. Report of No Distribution filed 4/4/11. We have now been waiting 115 days since the 341 for our discharge and it absolutely is agonizing. We have passed all major hurdles and know its only a matter of time. We realize the timeing is out of our control and may even be delayed because of judicial staffing cuts mandated by state budget cuts.

We take some comfort knowing we told the truth, have passed the hurdles and have no control over anything else. Good things will come...relax as best you can and let the system do its thing.

Good luck.

Thanks JMCM030111, I'm so happy for you and all the others who are at that final stage of waiting for a dishcharge; while nerve wracking, it still is almost done, right? Thanks for your support and you hang in there too! :o)
