Have you ever been laid off?

[KenWittlief]

Losing your job is a shock to your system, second only (I think) to the death of a close family member or spouse.

you spend more than half your waking hours at work. When thats suddenly taken away from you that is very stressfull and disturbing.

Understand this and accept that you are going through a difficult time. Most likely you will go through a grieving process, with all the different phases (anger, denial, attempts to bargan your way out...)

Sometimes being knocked out of your normal routine can be a good thing. This might spur you on to find a really excellent job, or even to start your own business.
