Are you eligible for unemployment? was there any warnings, verbal or documented? is there a Department of Labor to file a claim? If you qualify for SSI/SSD why not apply? You can still earn an income with caps in addition to what you get on the programs.
I think we had the cell phone convo, but do you have a landline too? I made my landline my cell phone to cut costs and not lose the number I've had for 20+ years. Also, most cell companies have mssging from their website to any cell number, and email to cell phone too. Would that help you stay in touch?
Stay positive.
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
