No, in the long run, debt consolidation will only cost you more money, considering the fees you will owe to the consolidating agency. If your debts are such that you cannot repay them, especially due to events beyond your control, your best course of action is to contact a bankruptcy attorney. It may seem scary or sceezy, but the bankruptcy laws were written for a reason. Besides, while you are filing, you will be protected under the stay, and if you choose to pay back the debt rather than have it wiped, you can file under chapter 13 and reorginze, perhaps paying less than you owe.
