The increase stress of a recession and the onslaught of layoffs from one company or many is taking a toll on my well-being, and for some readers, this might be a similar situation or you.  I’m been thinking critically and trying to think about how I could deal with it.

It is understandable that you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed by the current economic climate. Layoffs are a difficult experience for everyone involved, and it can be hard to know how to cope with the uncertainty and financial strain. Even if you haven’t been affected, you’re one of the survivors that are questioning if you might be next. 

Here are a few tips that may help with one situation, as I’m trying to do:

  • Allow yourself to feel your emotions. It is important to acknowledge your feelings, both positive and negative. Bottling up your emotions will only make things worse.
  • Talk to someone you trust. Talking to a friend, family member, therapist, or counselor can help you to process your emotions and develop coping strategies.
  • Take care of yourself. Make sure to eat healthy, exercise, and get enough sleep. You may also want to consider taking some time for yourself to relax and de-stress.
  • Focus on the present. It is easy to get caught up in the worry and anxiety of the future, but it is important to focus on the present moment. Take things one step at a time and don’t try to solve everything all at once.
  • Remember that you are not alone. Many people are going through similar experiences right now. There are resources available to help you, and you don’t have to go through this alone.

If you are struggling to cope with the stress of a recession and layoffs, please reach out to someone you know for help. There are also many resources available, and you don’t have to go through this alone.
