How do you handle bills on unemployment? - 8 months and counting

We are a household of 3 and the budget no longer works. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I am nervous about falling behind. Did lenders work with you?

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

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 8 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
