My contract was terminated last month citing restructuring. Honestly, I saw it coming but wasn't expecting it would hit like this
I tried keeping my mind distracted, but now it has started to sink
I live with parents and they aren't saying anything (they were feeding me before and still are, no change for them)
I have had thoughts of ending all this, but do not have the courage. What if it ends halfway and I am redundant my whole life?
Credit card bills are coming through now and being 42% of my ex-salary wasn't something I was prepared for. I thought I was a sane spender.
Keep looking around, apply and eventually you're bound to get a good job I promise you. Just treat it as a numbers game. Ask your parents help with the credit card bills if you don't have enough corpus, there is no shame in that. You can give the money back to them when you're in a better position.
You're a nice person from what I know of you in this platform, you got this sis! Ending it all is not a good option for the people who care about you, and you're probably gonna look back later and smile and be glad for making it through

I never expected to be laid off from my comfortable office job at 33, but looking back, it was the push I needed to pursue my passion. At first, I was devastated and terrified. I had bills to pay and a lifestyle I was accustomed to. I na...
