1.6 years into unemployment, looking for a light

So in Jan 2025 was laid off because of closures of business , was a manager at a movie theater, also worked as an art teacher, and entertainment sector in LA, I took 2025 easy just to catch up with finishing my degree but also did apply to maybe 200+ jobs of all types, collect unemployment, did some volunteering but now that it is 2026 I have been in full force to find my next job / career and today I hit 300 job applications. I am just amazed how amazingly difficult it has been to hear about anything back.

I know it is tough for everyone but I can somewhat annoyed right? I'm trying to get some sanity back and it doesn't help I had to move back home and ended up becoming a maid to my brothers and father, even now lately my dad has kind of stopped talking to me and I can see he's disappointed but I try to explain the job market and he just doesn't understand, it's been a huge blow of my confidence.

I'm looking for a sliver of hope and help, I seriously don't know how much longer I can really go on
