I am sorry that happened to you - do you mean cope with the financial issues or with depression? Are you going to get benefits/be safe financially?
I don't know if this can cheer you up, I can tell you my year 2014:
Jan 1 - feb 23 I was at home with pneumonia, there I discovered that I had no friends 'cause I received zero visits or phone calls in those 50+ days alone, then I was completely depressed but I kept going, had a falling out with my only close relative that turned out estrangement, started a new job in April that in a matter of months turned out to be a scam and I got mobbed to quit until November, in July I fell from my scooter and after 3 months of pain I was diagnosed with 3 slipped disks in my neck, around August I was completely depressed and I joined a music school to cheer myself up, finally that was a scam too and I experienced racism when everyone was avoiding me because I didn't speak their language perfectly (!) and was scammed of 1300$ and threatened of legal action because I quit, I joined a driving school and got scammed of $400 (in all this period, I was completely alone and isolated, except for some unsavoury new half-friendships ended very badly), a second driving school scammed me of $200, I invested in a knitting machine and it was broken, in November my landlord sent some thugs to threaten to hurt me if I didn't leave the house (he had no legal rights), all this time I was looking for another apartment and couldn't find it, received more threats from his lawyer on Christmas day and my mother had a fit, then finally NYE arrived and I was really happy that the year was over, and, oops, I got a second beginning of pneumonia. Did I mention that I live with a disability and half of the time I can hardly walk? You can imagine the level of depression.
There are periods like that, you just take a day at the time and pray that it will stop. Also, it might make sense to look for a healer to take the evil eye away, I know I am
