Question:
My husband got laid off - how can I keep him from getting depressed?
My husband just found out he will be laid off in 4 - 6 months (corporate takeover). He's very talented but older - in his mid-50's and I can already see him getting depressed. I want to keep him upbeat and motivated but I don't want to nag. How can I encourage him and keep him from sliding into depression?
Answers:
If he loves what he does and is willing to go back to it again, help him w/ the resume and encourage him along the way. Look into starting a business for himself - you could help there as well.
