Acting : Need help and inspiration by Malynda Nichols

I'm a 45 y/o female who's children are old enough to be semi-independent (i.e. teenagers) and I have been dreaming of getting back into acting. Here's my dilemma: Evicted from my apartment and living with my brother and his wife, unemployed and suffering from depression/anxiety, and have no steady income other than what I get from the state. I don't have the cash for headshots and looking for local film or theater since the last time I did either was before 2003; trying to work up my resume. I was going to audition for a haunted graveyard but, in truth, it was my depression that kept me home. Any suggestions from the hive mind?
