Aaron, not the misery needs any more company but I too am going through some similar changes. It is truly a most volatile time in my life. As much as I think it's isolated to me, it is not. Does that give me solace? Absolutely not. I never talk about my personal life with anyone but decided to commiserate with you.
For me, I'm at the cross roads of my career. The cross roads prompted by the fact that I was given an ultimatum 3 months ago. I had till the end of October to generate more income for the company. Interesting statement given that I am not in a sales position. Made even moreso by the fact that the ceo is my sisters husband.
Trying to ignore that fact is very very difficult. Communication has dwindled to a cursory good morning and good evening. Uncomfortable would be a kind word in this case.
I'm not sure what the next few months will bring. Bankruptcy, being humbled, appreciating what you got, loving your immediate family, knowing who your true friends are, lack of sleep, stress, not eating, taking stock, resumes, brainstorming, applying for jobs, accepting the inevitable-all these thoughts and more come to mind.
I can relate on some levels what you're going through...
