Don't borrow from the 401(K)!!

NO!!  Do not borrow from a 401(K) to pay credit card debt!!  If the debt is all yours, contact a bankruptcy attorney and file chapter 7 to get rid of it.  You can file BK individually.  The 401(K) is exempt from attachment in a bankruptcy. 

I'm going through bankruptcy myself right now, walking away from the way underwater house (Florida), and planning to start over.  My credit card debt was incurred trying to keep the house.  Stupid move on my part.

Good luck! Things will get better.

good luck!
