I'm not sure I'll be able to do anything today. I tried sleeping but I'm so nervous and over-stressed that I couldn't. I'm honestly not sure how I'll make it through the day, especially if cuts really do continue. My team was not affected yesterday, so if there's more, chances are we will be.

They are trying to slow roll the layoffs to avoid media headlines, but in doing so they are just torturing everyone.
So sick of this nonsense, and I'm sick of being one of the only people trying too while every one plays the passive game doing nothing. Morale is gone, lability to work effectively is gone. Teams have been decimated. There is no real plan here. I wish they'd lay me off already but my team still keeps being unaffected directly. I'd take the severance at this point, but I"m not quitting until they cough it up, so the beatings continue.
Yes, families, loved ones, dear friends need you here. Wishing the best for everyone living under these Dark Overlords. And, not for nothing, if you feel that you need someone to talk to DO IT! Don't isolate yourself, be with the ones who matter the most.
Just remember - you are quickly replaced by any company. You are irreplaceable to your family. Losing a job is difficult, but the worry is not worth your health. Please try to know that unfortunately, it is not in your hands, and worry and stress is the leading cause of strokes/heart attacks, etc. I know - easier said than done. I hope the best for you through all of this.
