    I was laid off 4 weeks ago and have not told my family because I do not want them to worry. Thank you in advance. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet. Did it get easier afterwards?

    Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

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