You absolutely will be OK. It's honestly, only money, your have friends and family who love you, you have a roof over your head, you have a job, you have a kitty who loves you, and that cute Canadian guy too. Focus on the positives. There's so many in your life.
It's a good thing that you aren't ignoring your financial situation, while it sucks right now, it will get better. It's not a bottomless pit you are in, there will be end to it. If you want to have a lunch at Brueggers every so often, enjoy it. You aren't doing it every day. Pack your lunch on those other days, bring chips from home to save money.
Cutting expenses is good, however you don't want to cut what makes you happy too. If internet access gives you pleasure because it keeps you connected to people, then don't punish yourself, the savings aren't worth it.
Don't second guess your decisions, in a few years, or less, your financial situation will be nothing but a memory, if you like living on your own, then you absolutely made the right decision. Nothing worth having is ever easy...
Just relax a bit and take care of yourself. (Have a cup of tea...)
