bankruptcy help

[ihatemylife]

first of all a bit of background about me , a few of you may remember my previous post about me being caught stealing from my employer and that i am a regular poster but this is an anonymous account so not to cause embarrasment to myself.

things have been fine for my daughter , she has had the help she needs and has stopped the self harming

i have stayed out of trouble but as expected i have been unable to get a job so i am on job seekers allowance.

i have always had trouble with debt, i am totally useless at budgeting and always spend way too much on everything and buried my head in the sand over repayments.
i need to sort my life out as i no longer know how much i owe or to who but i have had bailiffs and high court enforcement officers at my door lately over council tax arrears. i owe 2 local authorities about £5000 in council tax arrears and they are now un willing to accept anything but full payments .
please dont lecture me about paying things back as i know i am in the wrong but i cant go on like this so i feel the only solution is bankruptcy .
would bankruptcy clear my council tax debts or will they still apply ?

thank you in advance
