[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, all. I found out yesterday that I'm being laid off. I am crushed and freaking out. DH is a contractor, so our family's health/dental benefits are through my employer. We have two young kids. And we just bought a new place. Beyond the financial freak-out, I am dealing with a horrible loss of self-confidence and self-worth. I have an ache in my chest over it, and I truly don't know how I'm going to sell myself to another potential employer. I know this is fresh, and this sense of panic will fade (I hope)... It's just hard to take. If you've gone through a similar situation, please share how you picked up and dusted off. Thanks.[/quote] I've been laid off twice in my life, try not hyperventilate. You'll survive, you won't have a scarlet letter and you'll get another job. Self medicate for a week or so, do some staycation type stuff and then start networking and applying for jobs.[/quote]
