    I was laid off 22 weeks ago and have not told my family because I do not want them to worry. I am in Memphis, in case local advice matters. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet.

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