I've been going through some things personally the last few months and it's shown in my work/performance. What's the best way to change the perception from others back to being positive?

That isn't really who I am and it's rather just a reflection of a difficult time. What, or how much, do I share to get the confidence in me back? Besides no longer letting it show in my work.

Always make sure those judging your performance know when you are going through something personal even if you don't share all the details. Sustained improvement is the best way to recover.

My work suffered when I was going through my divorce and custody battle but I let my mgr know what was going on (high level) and he was very supportive. That being said, I did my best to kick it into another gear because I understood that's what was required. Start being the one that delivers and can be depended on and over time you'll be ok. You've got this!

It’s amazing to me that I tie so much of my mental well being to my work performance. Today was the first day in weeks that I felt like I was on top of things and knew what was going on. A presentation I did got great feedback & I just realized how much anxiety I have with work all the time🤦🏻‍♀️😬

Can severance packages be negotiated? My role was eliminated in a restructuring and they’re offering six months severance. We were in the process of updating my job title to be more descriptive, which would make it much easier for me to get the next job. Do I try to see if they would update my title? (HR here is not easy to deal with.) Also, I heard that if you leave you can cash out PTO, but I don’t know if that’s true with a severance package. Appreciate an educated perspective. TIA
