8 months and I’m a lawyer. I know the feeling sucks… I started praying the prayers I didn’t even know I knew haha I cried a lot and drank a lot (maybe borderline alcoholism). I survived though. Keep your head up.
6 months. I took a lower paying job at a startup. I love the work and people. One year later I got a call from a recruiter offering 50% more than my original. Things worked out in the long run.
Still looking and it's been over a year. I've picked up some freelance gigs but the frustration of not making enough to make ends meet is literally killing me.
1 year and counting

In the same boat, laid of about 4 months ago beginning of April. My husband and I actually had to move to another city hours from our family because we couldn't afford rent. I know people say "you're not alone, so many people are in the same boat" but that doesn't help. Just keep applying, invest your free time into a hobby you love (mine is art and reading), and one day something will catch.
