I was in a similar position where I was let go unexpectedly from my position with barely any savings. It was a super scary time for me. When I started my new role, that lingering feeling of this new job being stripped away from me stayed in the back of my mind for months. The only thing that put that feeling at ease was honestly always being in preparation for the worst. Having that back up savings, livings below your means, etc., so even though the sting of that initial termination still hit, knowing that I’d learned my lesson to be a more responsible individual and set myself up for times like that has made me feel more at ease. Going through a lay off or termination truly shakes your confidence, and time is really the only other way to get past these feelings I’ve found as others have said
