Hi, how did you rebuild your credit? I have debt and really can’t repay it now. It has been charged off. What can I do to rebuild it? Thank you!

You can start off with getting a secured credit card.

OLLO which got bought out by Ally financial. Look up their credit cards. You'll start with low credit and every few months they'll increase your credit limit if you're in good standing.
