Hiding a layoff from the family, bad idea? - 11 weeks in

I was laid off 11 weeks ago and have not told my family because I do not want them to worry. I am in Columbus, in case local advice matters. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. Did it get easier afterwards?

Shame is common after a layoff even when it is not your fault. Saying it out loud to one person first helped me.
