How to cope with partners redundancy

Hi Sisters,

My partner got made redundant yesterday for the 2nd time in just over a year. Last time it was so much easier because he got a bit more of a payout as he was with that company for so long. But this time it has shocked us and leaving us with 2 weeks pay. Which scares the hell out of me. we have had times of stressfull money times and ive always been able to see the positives and sot down and reevaluate our situation and got through it. This time i am a blubbering mess on the floor. We have twin 18month olds and a 4 year old. And I just cant see any positives, we will have to stop the kids swimming lessons, we were just about to move into a slightly bigger rental instead of being squished in a 2 bedroom, i dont know how we are going to afford all our bills to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. I work part time and has asked if i can pick up any extra shifts and my partner has rang every contact he knows. I dont know what im asking but how the hell do we cope? How can I stop crying and move forward?
