When looking into filing bankruptcy, you should seriously consider all other options. Filing for bankruptcy can eliminate all of your unsecured debts, but it is a black mark on your credit for 10 years. After deciding on your course of action, consider talking to a financial counselor before you file bankruptcy. The financial counter will be able to look at your debt situation and help determine if there is any other way of paying off your debt. Sometimes working out a budget and managing your spending might do the trick. Getting rid of all your credit cards is a good start. A bad idea is to take out a consolidation loan for all your debts because many times there is high interest in payoff penalties which will end up making you fail.
