丈夫失业以来,我的世界分崩离析

Dear Coleen,

亲爱的科琳，

I probably feel the lowest I ever felt have in my life. My husband lost his job recently, which means we're facing a very uncertain New Year with two children and a big mortgage.

我感觉现在的我处于人生最低谷。近来，我丈夫失业了，这也意味着我们的新年注定不安稳，毕竟我们还有2个孩子要养、有贷款要还。

I only work part-time as our kids are still young, and my earnings aren't enough to cover all our expenses. I just want to shut myself away at the moment, whereas my husband's way of dealing with it is to carry on as if nothing has happened.

因为孩子还小，所以我找了份兼职工作，收入不足以支付全家消费。现在，我只想把自己关起来，而丈夫对待这件事的态度却是：若无其事的照往常一般生活。

He seems determined to see our friends over New Year and go to parties, and I just can't face it. We haven't told anyone that he's lost his job yet (with the exception of our parents) and I don't want people to know for the time being, which is causing a lot of tension between us.

他已决定好要在新年和朋友一起参加聚会，但我做不到啊！关于他失业一事，我们尚未告诉任何人（除了双方父母）。我暂时不想让其他人知道这件事，这也使我们的关系变得紧张。

We have a really lovely home and a nice lifestyle that we've worked hard for and I can't bear the thought of losing everything we've built up. The problem is, we're not really talking about it and we're just coping alone in very different ways.
