I just received the call from HR that I've been laid off, and I'm still in shock. After 13 years at the company, I'm being offered 2 months of non-working pay along with up to 8 months of severance. I'm feeling a mix of panic and uncertainty about what to do next. I'm planning to search for more information and advice here, but I could really use some guidance on whether I should apply for unemployment benefits right away or wait until my severance runs out. I've seen some comments suggesting that I might not be eligible for unemployment until the severance payments end, while others say I should apply immediately. It's all a bit overwhelming right now.
