Emotional Impact of Mortgage Foreclosure
Sunday, February 10th, 2008
As if the financial aspect of trying to stop mortgage foreclosure isn’t enough, there is the emotional impact as well. Homeowners facing foreclosure often feel a range of emotions—anger, guilt, helplessness, hopelessness, despair, embarrassment, and confusion. What do I do now? Where can I turn to? How can our family make it through this? All legitimate feelings. The good news is that there are places who can help you cope with the emotional impact of trying to stop foreclosure—friends, loved ones, your pastor, non-profit credit counseling services. So don’t let stress get the best of you.
