How do I tell my family about the layoff? - 21 weeks in

My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as an operations analyst. Thank you in advance. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team.

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

Do not wait until a bill surprises them. The longer it goes, the harder it gets.
