Job Change or Job Loss
My whole life is upside down. My days are all mine, but I am stuck in a self-pity party that I can’t seem to shake. I know I should be dusting off my resume and polishing my cover letter, but I am so overwhelmed with loss that I just sink into the couch and watch more TV. Losing a job can easily push you into an unhealthy emotional situation. If you have worked at your job for many years, saying farewell to that position, your colleagues, and the daily routine that it all offered can leave you in a tailspin. The thought of all the bills that will pile up, unemployment checks that don’t make ends meet, and the void created by the job loss, you have a recipe for depression, anxiety, and self-doubt. With the recent pandemic, the new economy has left many people displaced from their jobs, trying to make ends meet with unemployment and government stimulus checks. Neither of these fill the void created by job loss.
