fear

[exploited]

I fell like I don't feel anything anymore except fear, the last two years were so hard. I am not sick or something like that, and yes it is about money and I hate that it is because of that. But there is a story behind this, two years ago I have started good business and everything went well until one moment one of let's say friend /customer asked me to invest with me. He seemed like a reasonable man and for some reason, I accepted, and we lost. We lost a lot but for him that was not the option he wants all back, now I am in a life treating situation. As it turns out he is not that good he is a very bad guy, tried with police they do not care. Now he wants 50000$ even he didn't invest that much Also, I have been robbed my store was robbed also lost a lot of money (±30000$ )and now I am living with my wife and 2 kids and I am not able to do anything, i hardly able to provide anything for them,we moved from nice place to 300ft apartment the 4 of us, and my will is very bad, everything I started went bad. I had a car accident as well I can say I do it on purpose as I had suicidal thots my car was totaled and I went without a scratch and yet again I am still in a very bad place mad brain is not working, as usual, can't focus on anything. Now I have a deadline to meet this guy wish and all don't know what to do.....
I don't want to live in fear as this is the worst option of living

Not sure if you are getting any sort of help at all. Therapy wise? Let us start with the friend. He is entitled to nothing at all. You gamble when you invest money. You both lost out. Why he imagines he deserves extra as well is a mystery. He asked to invest with you. You did not ask him. That was his choice. These things either go good or they go bad. Everybody knows that. Maybe speak to a person from free legal aid. They might draft up some form of legal document to be sent to him outlining the idea of an investment. That by law he is entitled to nothing at all.

When things are going good in life, everything seems perfect. We have no worries. But then it all falls apart. That is when the worries begin. Having a wife and kids. I am sure they were used to living a certain way. Now it will all be about downsizing. Getting used to that. Having to go without certain things. It can seem like a bad deal in life. Really get under your skin. All about sitting down and working out what you can afford now. Spreading what you have left out to make things work for you.

I would suggest you talk to somebody. About how you are feeling. The fear. The worry. Talking to the right person might help push you in the right direction. Things can pick up for you again.

Tell him that, investments can go sour, do not blame yourself for business failure. It would be sometime before you made profits, every single business out there from the local corner shop to Asda/Walmart, started out not making any profit. The real reason why you business went sour is because you did not have good advisers. You have to protect the investments of business and also perhaps some good security for your store, if possible. Try to make ends meet and work on success, the aim of business is to buy cheap and sell expensive, but you already knew that. I would own my own business but i choose to do other things instead. Do not give up but keep on fighting.
