I'm horrible with stress. Always have been, and it feels as though I'm stressed 24/7....
To add to this, yesterday morning I was laid off of my job of 8 years (making roughly $50k USD before taxes).
My wife makes ~60k USD before taxes.
They're paying me severance through mid July.
I have ~7k in 0% interest CC debt from a kitchen remodel.
1300/month on our house (own)
300/month on one car (cleaning up and selling asap...should generate about $4k into our pockets).
186 on another that will be paid off in 10 months (plan on using this one daily).
Pretty sure Those are all of the major expenses. I have the severance agreement in writing, but not why I was laid off or anything else. I tried to take yesterday to soak everything in, but I'm still a weeping mess. I feel like I've failed my family, and I don't know what to do next.
I've saved ~100 jobs and plan on updating my resume and starting applying throughout the next couple of days... I just feel like I'm not doing things I should, and I'm having major anxiety issues over it.
Sorry for the garbled post, I'm not in a good place right now.
***EDIT I should say that currently there is ~1200 in our checking and $3300 in our savings...she has a retirement fund (unsure of totals right now).
I got back from a 10 day vacation Monday ($5,000 I wish I hadn't spent), they laid me off Tuesday morning.
