Unless you promised the judge that in exchange for a continuance, you would get a lawyer (In which case, you would likely get an admonishment) - no. It's your constitutional right to handle this without an attorney. Whether you succeed is a different matter, however.

Your inquiry is a bit vague. If in doubt, hire counsel.
