Laid off for a mistake

Worked as a manager for approximately 60 employees.

Laid off for one single mistake that did not cost the company anything nor did it have any impact on its reputation.

Only been there for approximately 8 months and felt like accepting the job was a mistake from the beginning, trust issues and bad morale and no support from my manager. Felt so bad the day before the layoff that I was thinking about starting drinking again after being 5 years sober.

I got a new job managing 23 persons but 23% less pay.

I feel so bad after being laid off, can’t really wrap my head around being laid off for one mistake and feel like money is everything.
