Budgeting tips when income drops - what worked for you?

My income is now a fraction of what it was as a pharmacy technician and I am trying to cover the essentials. I am in Jacksonville, in case local advice matters. I am nervous about falling behind. Did lenders work with you?

Check for energy assistance programmes. I got a credit that covered two bills.

Sell things you do not use. I made about $650 from a weekend of listing.
