Layoff happened 16 days ago, feeling lost - 21 weeks in

I lost my job as a paralegal and I am not sure what to do first. I have not told my family yet. What did you do in the first week?

Ask for your final pay, unused leave and any documents in writing before you leave, if you still can.

Give yourself the first couple of days to be upset. I did, and then I felt able to plan.
