Debt on credit card has high risk and hence a higher APR associated as per general market and credit risk theorem. However if you have a debt over $10000 and it is unmanageable; stop making the payment. Instead save this money in a saving account.

Transfer the credit from high APR credit account to a lower APR. Consolidate the credit from multiple credit cards into one. If possible take an equity or loan against a secured asset which has a lower APR to pay off the credit card debt. After few unpaid billing cycles have passed, the banks would be curious to know your financial strength, and what is stopping you from making payments, you can use this opportunity to explain them your willingness but incapability to pay the debt. Most of the bank would not like to be the cause of your bankruptcy. Especially during recession, the banks are willing to negotiate.
