Too much change all at once

Dancingturnip July 6th, 2016

Hello, I am really scared right now because so many things are happening all at once. I just lost my marriage, my apartment, and my job and in a few days I am moving to another town. It is just a lot to deal with at once and I hate change in the first place. I'm just glad I still have my family and my cat. But I am very scared because my future is so much less certain than it was a couple weeks ago. Thank you for reading.

@Dancingturnip First, I would like to give you a hug. Nobody likes to go through transitory phases like this, especially when there's so much happening at once. Be brave. Know that you will be okay.

@Dancingturnip Mate, I understand. Change is tough. Change which is enforced on you is tougher. I've found that the trick is to just keep going. This too will pass. Make sure you dont focus solely on the difficulties but try to be even-handed in your assessment: you've said you've got family support. What else can you put in the positive side of the balance sheet? Keep going. You will come through this rough patch.
