How to deal with depression when you're broke?

...See more I'm a 26 year old still living with his mom and 2 older brothers (soon to be one in a few weeks because of some major legal issues with one of my brothers). Since my dad died 8 years ago, my family has been struggling financially, and I can't afford the help that I desperately need. I can't get a job because I have no confidence (as a result of some major dental work that I need, but once again can't even come close to affording). Basically I see no possibility of a positive future because I can't afford to fix these dental problems (which would certainly help my self esteem). Since I lost my health insurance a month ago when I turned 26, I can no longer afford my lexapro prescription, which only makes things that much worse. At this point I have no clue what to do with myself. How can I possibly get better when I have no money whatsoever? Even though I know I need it, I haven't even begun to think about seeing a therapist. (Even if it's through this website, which I STILL couldn't afford). Long story short, I need advice on what I could possibly do to fix this situation, because I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
What do you do...
