Six strokes to overcome anxiety of laying off!

Monday, December 29th, 2008
Get laid off this term in the job market every human brain, was easy to touch on the management of the survival of fear of nerve region. In this financial tsunami, this fear is more magnified. Well, fear is devoid of any merit it? Of course not. Fear is the emotion-driven human beings to review any matter affecting the survival, then quickly learn to adjust.

International oil prices have dropped to 40 U.S. dollars a barrel, if you can not sell 150 U.S. dollars per barrel in oil, or Sinopec employees during this period of time may be made to the “rice bowl” more or less have a sense of crisis.

As by the end of November, the city of Guangzhou this year, the total number of labor arbitration cases has more than 60,000, in the past two years and the total number on file because of the financial collapse of the tsunami in corporate layoffs or cuts, the termination of the contract, and other events triggered a large number of workers working to recover compensation.

In this financial crisis, most people will adapt slowly, slowly finding ways to survive, for example, will soon find a job, but there may be 10% -15% of the people can not adapt to the emotional stress for a long time, turned into a depression or Anxiety disorder.

Early psychological intervention

Each year, you do not check the body? I believe most people will have to answer.

Every year you go Scaling it? Perhaps only a small number of people in his head.

Scaling and medical check-up, only a preventive measure for early detection of changes in the body as soon as possible to deal with. In that case, it psychological?

There are always a lot of people with emotional problems, but there are too many people used to sweep the problem under the carpet, not a problem that can not see. This used to develop the longer you do not hear those of you Mengqiao alarm anxiety and fear, and when they accumulate too many suddenly broke out, you may have to face a more formidable is the depression and anxiety disorders.

Get laid off this term in the job market every human brain, was easy to touch on the management of the survival of fear of nerve region. In this financial tsunami, this fear is more magnified. Well, fear is devoid of any merit it? Of course not. Feelings of fear to drive human beings to review any matter affecting the survival, then quickly learn to adjust.

There are many people do not know how to use his emotions, but only allowed to own one of immersion. Learning used to regulate their emotions, I suggest you lay off the crisis really like to do before the arrival of the psychological examination, look for their own problems and not wait until you have “no money, no time,” when people look for help, it is necessary to know the most In fact, early treatment is good prevention.

Find a way to make himself happy

When the smart decision to lay off their boss, they will give priority to those who do not have a strong ability to work as well as unhappy employees, because they will fear that this happy mood spread to other employees.

Sentiment is not used to suppress and the vent, but to use the application.

Scientists in Britain found that feelings of pleasure when the human body to secrete more of amphetamines, more people happy healthy, in fact, even if only a little trick of the stretch, but also in maintaining a happy mood there to help.

Most people think that the negative sentiment from the external pressure, and emotional diseases or weakness of character that only people go to a dead end there, in fact, only emotions and your brain, the brain by the hundreds of millions of nerve cell connections, such as the formation of a giant spider web of information Network, the endocrine brain serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine adrenal hormone responsible for regulating mood, thinking, power and sleep, loss of balance when these substances, it will have a further emotional diseases.

You can do is to make more memories of those who experienced the happy things, maybe you begin to find more dynamic and creative work. You can not decide whether or not the boss cut you, but you can strive to reduce the possibility of being laid off.

Stop and look at the life of the inventory

If you have a day to be called the Office of the boss alone, before two large envelopes. First boss spoke highly of your work, and pleasant to say, here is a letter of resignation dismiss is a letter, you will have to choose between a do?

Whether an election which, you know, then you have to have lost their jobs.

After being laid off first thing is to took a deep breath and let you rapid pace at this moment to stop.

You need to stop and take a look at what life in the “stock” and also how much money is the first, how long you can support life, because it directly affects the mood; the second is around to see how many friends and relatives in support of the You do not know if they are asked to call on it. Those who heard the news that you are unemployed, “I ask you to another day of tea,” may not really support you, because some day may never know what day it is. Hong Kong’s Oriental Daily News senior editor Jack was laid off last month, he pleasantly surprised to find that “have been pushed up more than friends do not know,” Every day someone asked him to line up for dinner. These support, in addition to warm you in spirit, but also let you know how many people support you look for opportunities.

The last point is the ability to review their own if their skills deficient should seek to integrate skills, how much money to invest, not all provinces, to be a smart decision. If you can find a good mental coach, can really help you, do not hesitate to go learn from him, when you walked slowly at this stage in life when you find you have a further training and technology.
