When I was saddled with debt I never thought about the financial future - saving, investing, etc. All I thought about was "how did I get myself in so much debt". Now I can think about how I will invest the money that would go to credit cards. I can think about saving up and taking my wife away for the weekend. Simply put, I am no longer depressed or anxious about my debt and that has made my life so much more enjoyable. p.s. not only will getting rid of debt help out with depression, you might actually feel proud of yourself for doing the right thing!
