Juat keep meeting your expectations until you have an offer in hand and a start date. Dont burn the bridge with the current company, but do not over work yourself. Looking for a new job is a job in itself.
I totally understand how you feel. I am in the exact same boat! Currently applying to better jobs and had a couple interviews just waiting on an offer before I can leave!!!! Hang in there

Just applying? Nah.
Once I have an offer in hand, sure.
Been there before! But try to think positive and know they better is on the way so hang in there and continue to put your best foot forward 👍😊
Ah... a classic case of the "f***k-its". I completely get it. Tough it out the best you can. The reality is that it is easier to get a job when you have a job than it is when you don't have one. That being said, your priority should be to look for another job. Don't work overtime, search for jobs during breaks/lunch (on your personal phone, NEVER on company equipment). Don't use sick days as "mental health" days - save them for interviews. Most importantly, make sure you ask the hard questions during the interviews to make sure you aren't moving from one s**t-show to another.
Love your feedback- thank you!!!
Don’t have advice so as much as commenting to say I feel the exact same things. It’s a huge struggle day-to-day, but we do have to remind ourselves this is just a chapter of our lives.
If it’s any consolation, I have actually thought about ways to get fired that would still qualify me for unemployment that wouldn’t take a soul sucking, lengthy process and could be almost immediate. Unfortunately, don’t know if there is one.
