Is anyone here between jobs at the moment? What are you doing to pass the time and cope? I'm feeling burned out from job searching, so I figured I should probably have some distractions so I don't go nuts.

YES!!! I have gotten back into pilates and exercising. When I start feeling really burned out and frustrated I go work out to try and get some of the stress out of my body. It has been a long six months looking for a new role.

I’m studying a foreign language, doing yoga 4x per week, power walking 5x per week, reading books, reorganizing my closets, etc.

I took a software engineering program, been reading way more, picked up new creative hobbies, photo walks, painting, personal projects, spec work, learning how to animate :)

When I was laid off I started wood carving. Hang in there
