I have a job and we're still falling in a hole. (In my case, I could stay home and be in about the same place...child care and tuition for my two is just slightly more than my pre-tax salary.)
I wish I could wave my magic wand and make it all work, but we both know it doesn't work like that.
Start with: what do you want to happen? and if not that, if that is impossible, then what would you want to happen? Keep repeating. Focus on the things you can control. You will find something that will help you feel less powerless. It may not be easy, but those things can be found. Incremental changes can help rather a lot.

Good luck.
