It’s so rough :/ sorry you’re also going through this.
I only got my most recent job because I struck up a conversation with a dude and he basically hired me on the spot. Needless to say, it’s not working out.
Not sure if you’re familiar with the pattern of being told you’ll never find a place to work that doesn’t make you miserable because “you ask for too much” (i.e. the meekest of accommodations that don’t threaten the bottom line). Such a dumb game and a game is exactly what it is
Back to your post though- It seems like the only answer is to put yourself out there and if that’s too overwhelming, maybe you can take small steps to put yourself out there little by little and just put yourself into positions where employment could come out of a conversation or something. It’s really all about who you know and I wish that was not the case though I suppose you don’t have much to lose at applying ad nauseam on indeed or LinkedIn and playing the lottery. There’s also different recruiting companies that do a decent job placing people in roles. Good luck out there and keep pushing forward
