My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as a graphic designer. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. What did you say?

Kids often pick up more than you think. A short, calm explanation helped mine feel secure.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 14 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
