ACCEPTING that you have no job may be the most difficult part of losing a job.
But until you reach this plateau, you cannot be an effective job
seeker. Here are a few things that can go wrong, along with suggestions
for getting back on track:
- Victims of job loss usually experience shock, anger,
denial, relief, and depression–sometimes all of these–before they are
able to accept their situation. Knowing this may help you deal with your
situation.
- Get at least a half hour of exercise every day. You'll feel better physically, and more in control.
- Dealing with a cash crunch: Everybody suffers after
losing a paycheck, some more than others, obviously. Do all you can to
reduce the impact of reduced income.
- Check with your former employer to be sure you have
received all severance benefits coming to you. If you have a doubt, call
a lawyer knowledgeable about such matters.
- Job loss can produce family friction. Know how to
recognize and deal with it. Maintain family communications, and at the
same time set up "wartime" family rules to accommodate new job-search
schedules and phone calls.
