More On My Stages Of Coping

Denial
Covered at this point I have come to grips with it....

Anger
I am definately here! Now it sinks in how little they valued what I did, and what I was offering to do.

Bargaining
I think there is nothing to bargain on in this situation, this step is going to be omitted, the only deals I'll be making with myself, is how long I can last without a job, and still be financially okay. There will be no "If I did things differently" thoughts at this point. I regret the situation, but from a bad circumstance may come something better, juts like the "phoenix from the ashes" reference I love to make.

Depression
I fear the family may not know how to deal with this when it hits. Very concerned about this phase.

Acceptance
I will have this when I have new work. Then I'll be able to accept that everything I have worked for won't be lost.
