Ask how much cut you would have to take for it to not be in jeopardy. Lower pay is better than no pay, and it would then give you the opportunity to look elsewhere for better benefits. My income is off 60% from 4 years ago, but I am still making some money.

My world has been turned upside down. After nearly 30 years at the same company, where I always got stellar performance reviews and incredible raises, bonuses and stock options, all of a sudden, without warning, I am told I make too much money and my employment is in immediate jeopardy (I'm a software engineer).

If this wasn't bad enough, my body is responding with extreme stress and anxiety, which are severely affecting my ability to function in my job, let alone life.

My wife has some anxiety pills which I have been taking, which help a bit. I hate drugs, however, and am looking for other options. I would think that some effective hypnosis program would be useful to get this under control, but so far haven't found anything that looks effective.

Any help is appreciated...
