Job Loss - Blog Posts

It really sucks being out of work. I know that it's been a month and half since I lost job, but it feels like an eternity. I hate having no income coming in. I'm glad that I saved up a lot of money while working, but still....

My mental health took a hit because of it and I'm trying to build a new routine. It's hard because the holidays are coming up and new levels of stress.

I lost my job last week. I came back from vacation to be thrown into a meeting into HR and my manager to be told that I'm being let go. It's so stupid. They didn't even give me a chance to wrap my day up or finish anything that was outstanding.

I'm in a weird anxiety and depression funk. I updated my resume and filled out more job applications, but I feel like a failure. Normally, I was the bread winner for my roommate and I. She was an older woman, and COPD took a toll on her and she couldn't work anymore, but she did get disability. Over time, her health declined, so I did pretty much all the work and at home as well.

Then, my boyfriend moved in with us because his vehicle became unreliable and he lives out of town. It was supposed to be a temporary fix, but that helped out a lot. But I was the one that made sure everything was up and running.

Now, I'm not, and it bothers me to no end! 😭
