So today me and the hubs got into it. ( Just a back story I lost my job last week) and he started the day out by making the comment I was "home all last week" maybe I'm Uber sensitive but I took it as I wasn't doing anything. The day after I got let go I had 4 interviews. I define my self worth by my career. It's the only thing I'm good at. I also feel like I was thrown away like trash, and I have abandonment issue as well. We have a person that picks the kids up and drops them off. Some days ( especially recently) I'm super depressed and it's hard to get out of bed. He wants to fire her I want to keep her she's super inexpensive and I still do contract work. I'm just a crying mess a d feels like he doesn't understand. Am I over reacting??

I understand completely. I am the same way when it comes to my career. I'm sure my MI played some role in my losing my last job but I haven't figured it out yet because half the people said I was great and half of them basically formed a coup. On top of that the way they went about it was disgustingly underhanded.

I, too, was super depressed. I was ashamed to leave the house. My position was a very public one. I just knew everyone was talking about me. But I had friends who would come sit with me or drag me to lunch. Once I got focused on finding another job and got one I felt much better. If you had 4 interviews the day after you lost your job that's a great sign!
