Little lost

I owe so much it's overwhelming. If I don't pay $600 by the end of the month for premiums I did not know I missed while I was on leave, I lose my benefits and possibly my job.
My disability payment is late. It's hardly anything. It will be $1000. My rent ($420) and this bill will reduce it to zero. I also have to pay insurance ($140) and phone/internet ($80). That does not include food or gas.
Today is my first day back at work and I won't be paid for it until the 7th of next month. My next 10 paychecks will have $200 taken out of them because apparently my company overpaid me last year.
I currently have $144 in the bank. I have $130 in cash. That's it.
I am trying not to panic. I just feel hopeless and overwhelmed. I have good momentum, but it's so much fucking effort to just survive right now. I don't want to have fucking panic attacks for the price of cat litter going up.
Im mostly venting, but I'm all for ideas. I am still struggling to just get through the day right now and don't have much motivation. The food bank has been able to help me a lot.
