โNot sure if this helps, but please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Talk to your union if you have one, they were brilliant for me. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โI was where you are this time last year. It was the job centre appointment and I couldn't see past it. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart.โ
โI'm not going to pretend it's easy. Losing a job sucks. The ghosting, the silence, the way people look at you. But you're not the only one. I found a training course, met some people.

โA note for the next person. I was where you are in 2022. For me, a Teams call at 9am and it was over. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.โ
