Developers are not always rich people

I really struggled through university, and have been lucky to find employment. But with debts of over $50k and living in a UK city to be close to work is slowly bankrupting me. I am loosing. I am loosing my health, and slowly my will to live. I am now sitting outside a cafe using my phone on free WiFi as I have had my telephone lines disconnected and am building up rent arrears.

I wonder how many people are in this situation? And how it makes you feel? Where can I turn to get help??
