Weak-spots in floor.?

I just walked into my kitchen and my foot sank into the floor. It feels weak enough for a heavy person to fall through. Up until a few minutes(walking on the same spot) it was stable. Not sure what to do! I live in a trailer and I can't afford for someone to give an estimate. Any home remedy things I can do myself?

Jared. There are reasons that the floor has given away. First thing that comes to mind is water damage/Termites.
The effected area needs to be replaced. What you can do in the mean time is to go under the trailer and place a support 2"x8" across the effected area.
