Hearts defender Andraz Struna admits the Jambos are feeling the strain after their latest nightmare result.
But the Slovenia international insists the Gorgie dressing room remains united despite the setbacks piling up.
Ian Cathro's side have found themselves in the firing line of supporters since surrendering to city rivals Hibernian in last week's William Hill Scottish Cup clash.
Things went from bad to worse on Saturday as they lost away to Partick Thistle as their winless run was extended to four games.
Full-back Struna confessed those last two results have rocked the Tynecastle squad but insists they will strive to turn their season around - starting with Wednesday's visit of Ross County.
He told HeartsTV: "There are a lot of opinions right now, people speaking about strategies for what we must do.
"The fact is the results are not what everybody wants.
"As for the reasons, I cannot discuss them publicly but I can see in the dressing room we all want to find the solution.
"It's hard because there is a lot of emotion, a lot of stress. But we must find the way out of this situation as soon as possible.
"Hearts is a big club that has a good reputation in Scotland. We always want to fight for the top of the table.
"That is good and we expect things from ourselves like this. We all know the recent results are not what we want now but we are trying to find a solution.
"It was a bad week but this is sport. We don't have time to cry and all these things.
"We must get up again and try to get out of this bad situation. We'll start doing that by looking to get some positive things like a good performance on Wednesday.
"We know it will be hard. Nobody likes to be in a situation like this - but this is no time to look back. We must look forward and have faith."
Jambos winger Sam Nicholson branded Hearts' weekend display at Firhill "embarrassing".
Struna can see where his team-mate is coming from but believes the Jambos must remain calm if they are to rescue their bid to catch Rangers in third place.
The 27-year-old, whose side trail Gers by five points, said: "After the game there was a lot of emotions. That is normal because it all comes from disappointment.
"We must look at ourselves first. As an athlete, I'm the first to be disappointed when I lose. It's not nice.
"Your life is not nice when that happens. You can't be happy at home.
"But we've all been in these situations before and now it's important that we stay together and help each other to find the way out from this."
