Budget after a layoff: what did you cut first? - 14 months and counting

My income dropped to unemployment benefits and my bills have not changed. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot.

Ask your utility about hardship programmes. Mine knocked a bit off my bill for several months.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 14 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
