I'm with you there, I've been laid off multiple times. Within a month I'm somewhere else and everything is fine. I've been divorced with a kid. It's been over a year and I'm still in therapy. My identity was shattered. Like you, I have never defined myself by my job, it was what I did to provide for my ... family. Divorce hit me way harder financially as well than job loss. No job every took 50% of my assets and future assets with them.

I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm about 5 years past mine and there's still things I struggle with in relationships. I'm sorry to be cliche but time does heal all wounds. Doesn't mean there won't still be scars, but it does get better over time. It's perfectly normal and healthy for you to havae a period of mourning for the life you lost. Best of luck to you.
