It’s such a surreal feeling, especially when you’re still processing new responsibilities or projects you were excited about. I totally get the shock—you go from feeling secure and involved to suddenly being on the outside looking in, with no real explanation. Sometimes there just aren’t any signs, and it’s not about performance or anything you did. Companies make these decisions behind closed doors, and it can feel really disorienting when you’re caught off guard. You’re definitely not alone in feeling this way.
