  1. 1

    I was laid off from my fully remote job about three weeks ago, and it's been a tough time for me. At 30 years old, I had a good salary and felt secure, but now I find myself applying to numerous jobs and have managed to land three interviews. I'm currently waiting to hear back from those. Thankfully, I'm married and have a supportive wife, and I can get on her health insurance for now, which eases some of my worries. However, I can't shake this feeling of emptiness and failure. I've never experienced anything like this before, and it feels like being laid off has triggered a series of unfortunate events in my life. I try to stay positive around my wife, but when I'm alone, I tend to internalize my feelings and get really down on myself. I'm hopeful that I'll find a new position in my project management field soon, but I could really use some advice from others who have gone through similar experiences. What helped you stay positive during tough times like these?
