Insomnia, palpitations...sweaty palms (there's even a clinical term for it: hiperhidrosis), Unemployment can be freeing and it can be frightening.
Free to look for another job, a different supervisor, higher pay, closer to home, or fear and anxiety from the job-seeking process, sending out resumes, wondering if they will even be read, interviews, waiting and waiting and waiting.
Cognitive behavioral Therapists, such as myself, believe that our feelings come from our thoughts. Thoughts, for example, like: what if I'm too old or too young? What if I don't have enough skills, or I have too much education? How long will this process take? What if I made the biggest mistake of my life by quitting my last job without having a new one to take its place?
