Why Credit Cards Are Bad for Your Health and Mental Well-Being

Credit cards are often seen as a convenient way to buy things without using cash. Many people think having credit cards makes life easier. But from my 20+ years of banking experience, I have seen the other side of it. Credit cards can harm not only your finances but also your health and peace of mind.

When people use credit cards too much, they can easily spend more than they earn. High balances and monthly payments cause stress. I have met clients who are buried in credit card debt, unable to pay their bills, and feeling hopeless. This kind of financial burden affects mental health. Anxiety, depression, and even insomnia are common among people struggling with debt. Your mind and body suffer when money problems weigh on you every day.

Credit cards can create a false sense of security. You might feel rich while swiping your card, but the reality is that debt grows quietly. Interest rates are high, and minimum payments barely cover what you owe. Over time, this makes your debt worse instead of better. You may feel trapped, and that feeling of being trapped affects your overall well-being.

Another problem is that credit cards encourage impulsive spending. When you see a card, it feels like free money. But every purchase is borrowed money that must be repaid. Many people buy things they don’t really need, and before they know it, they are drowning in debt. This can lead to shame and regret, which harm your self-esteem and confidence.

The good news is that you do not need credit cards to survive. You can live a happy and secure life without them. In fact, avoiding credit cards can help you regain control of your finances and reduce stress. If you are struggling with credit card debt, you are not alone. This eBook is designed to help you understand your debt, plan your payments, and free yourself from financial bondage. With clear steps and guidance, you can regain peace of mind and live a healthier, debt-free life.

The Bible also teaches us to be wise with money. Proverbs 22:7 says, “The borrower is slave to the lender.” Credit card debt can make you feel like a slave to your bills, losing your freedom and peace. By managing your money carefully and avoiding unnecessary debt, you can live with less stress and more joy.

Remember, you are not going to die without credit cards. They are not a necessity. Freedom from debt brings freedom in your heart, mind, and life.
