What should you do when your in debt over $6000?

Okay I am a 20 year old male. I am in debt for exactly 92.. I know right what kind of 20 year old owes that much right? Well I do..I am in a really big mess and I need some help to figure out what I should do to get out of this mess. I owe my cards about 00 and I owe one person 00 and this other guy 50.. I didn’t borrow money from a loan shark or nothing like that..so I am not in no trouble. But man for a 20 year old who owes that much is crazy..I need a resolve to my problem. The main reason why I got in so much debt was because of gambling though..I do have a job only working 2 days out of a week at a resturant and bar..but thats not enough I need more.. if anybody could give me some solutions to my problem that be great.

Debt Solutions issues?

back in 2006 I was in financial dier strats with credit card debt… I hired a debt solutions facility to help me out… they did like 4 cc negotiations for me and got them paid off. I had more cards but could not afford the program any longer due the the high fees this company charged. A junk debt collection agency I sent a debt validation letter to them. they responded by senting me a partial copy of a cc statement with my name on it but with the Debt Soultion company address. Now 9 months later a collection law firm is trying to collect on this debt that will be SOL in august this year. So I did sent this law firm a debt validation letter and all they sent back to me was on letter head the same stuff I would see on my credit report is this sufficient validation? I may have paid this card off already ~ can they try to get more money out of me? Unfortunately I have no proof of paying this off and I can not get in contact with this debt agency any longer I AM STUCK. I am disputing the charges and if i owe this any longer. What are my options?
I have checked my credit report with Equifax and it was reported by the collection agency as an open account and that I disputed it after resolution ~~~ :(
Am now sending out second request for validation, specifically asking for my signature and how amount and interest was determined.

could I get my money back from credit solutions?

ok so about 3 years ago I had a lot of credit card debt and decided to use credit solutions to try and get out of the whole so much. well they told me to deposit so much money each month into a savings account until i reached a certain amount and then they would reach a settlement with one of the cards. well after doing this for a year and still getting no where with my cards we ended our contract with them. I seen last night on night time that people were getting all the money back that they had paid them. Does anyone know if i still have a chance of getting my money back even though its been three years?
