Wow, even though I know that you know it’s not your fault, I still hope you internalize not blaming yourself here. I’ve been there, and felt inexplicable shame even though I did nothing wrong. Take some time, I’m not a fan of silver linings much but we are in May so it’s not the worst time to be forced to pivot. I sincerely hope you land somewhere soon.

Thanks for the support. But let’s be real—this wasn’t about me. It’s happening to all of us. We give everything to a system built to use us up and move on. It doesn’t change until we stop taking it alone.

Yeah our generation no longer believes hard work leads to success because of things like this. It’s relationships and a little luck

Hey all!!
Hope you all are doing good.
Can someone share your thought of how to deal with this situation. I am completely lost in terms of my mental health. Not able to overcome and accept this situation. I think this is right place to ask, as we all are going through the same.

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out?
