[QUOTE="DDD, post: 571900, member: 35"] Sending you a HUGE hug and understanding caring thoughts. What you are feeling about the job loss is normal. I'm sure it must be even worse due to your issues, my friend, but truly when I got fired unexpectedly (and not due to my performance) I could barely drive home. I spent three days in bed crying when the kids were at school and lying to them when they were home saying that I had the flu. It completely tore away my self confidence, my sense of capability andd all positive thoughts about the future. That was in l971 and it was worse than any traumas I have experienced in my 72 years. It is NORMAL to feel devestated, MWM. Absolutely you should seek out help today because your pain is probably heightened by your issues BUT don't allow yourself to go to the darkest realm. You are a wonderful caring person with a family that loves and needs you. Take it one step at a time, my friend, and find someone to listen to your fears and disappointment. Put one foot in front of another...as you always have...and you will make progress. I don't know what outreach programs are nearby but don't delay. You need to vent. I am truly sorry but I have the utmost confidence you can find help. I'm sending prayers your way. DDD [/QUOTE]
