"-)NEW YORK?ÛÓWhen someone loses his job, it ""puts a psychological burden, as well as financial one, on his family. Unemployment is almost always accompanied by arjger, anxiety and guilt.</br></br>'pSome families weather these emotional storms without being seriously weakened, while others are torn apart. I asked a number of psychiatrists how people could best cope with a period of joblessness, and fdund them pretty much in agreement as to what was needed.</br></br>First, they all stressed how important it is for the unemployed person to continue thinking well of himself. ?ÛÏYou have to be able to appreciate your own sense of-.worth outside the employment structure,?Û? says New York psychiatrist Dr. Donald J. Mayerson.</br></br>!?Û÷?Û÷As long as you can respect your own integrity as a i'person, you can survive this kind of crisis. It?Ûªs the people whose self-image is all tied up with what they do, or how much they make, who can?Ûªt handle losing a job,?Û?</br></br>The quality of the relationship between husband and wife is also crucial. ?ÛÏAt a time like this, you turn first to your mate for support, and you have to find it there,?Û? says Dr. Virginia Sa-doch, another psychiatrist with a New York practice."
