Crying with a loaf of bread under my arm... new to retirement

I was recently let go from my consultant contract and am having a terrible time dealing with the fact that this may be it for me in the work place. That is, I am going to retire.
My self diagnose has my anxiety and 'nerves on end' embedded in not having enough money along with the fact that I have no retirement goals.
However, when I search the web and compare my financial status to the average american it projects that I will have enough money to retire on. I just cannot get past the emotional turmoil and each day brings on the same depression.
I stumbled across this web site would like to 'join a group', get a pen pal, join a blog or what ever. Which brings me to my question.
Can you recommend an approach for me that will put me in touch with others how have experienced similar problems?
Wendy's reply: I just sent you an invitation to the Retirement Transition group. You'll see emails from folks just like you... this is far more common than you think.
Now, how you move past this is completely personal. Please join the group and learn from others as well as sharing your own experiences!
See you there!
