The only way to fix it is to recover it with new material or buy a new headliner. I just recovered my headliner, sail panels, and sunvisors and it cost me between $50-$60 for the materials needed.
----------
If you want me to give a description on how to remove the headliner and recover, let me know.

Once it starts falling down, the only repair is to replace it.

quick fix to get it looking somewhat respectible is to pick up some 3m spray adhesive or something similar. try to spray as little as possible into the area if you can reach of course and smooth the material out as best you can. it will look like hell but better then a fallen headliner.

if the liner board is broken and falling apart you need to pull it down and fix it. this isn't difficult but it takes some common knowledge of how things work. you could be cheap and use cardboard to back it or anything else that's thin and stiff.

material to replace is cheap. roughly $20 in supplies and a few hours of your time you should be able to fix your headliner. i've done 2in the last week after spending $100 on one at a shop to be redone. do it yourself or at least try...
