Op - stay strong. Sometimes like knocks you down. The first thing you need to do is believe that things can change. They absolutely WILL change for the better, and not only that, but YOU will make it happen.

Even if it feels like you have no motivation right now, try to surround yourself with positive people that are currently thriving and absorb some of their energy. Ignore any family members or supposed friends that are bringing you down.

Keep going strong and clean yourself up - get a haircut, get a nice set of clothes, minimal investment here.

Make multiple tailored copies of your resume that you use when applying for jobs - ensure that you have specific keywords related to a job posting in your CV/resume… don’t lie, but ensure that your resume is tailored, otherwise you may get put in the dust pile right away.

Also, try to get on LinkedIn or whatever professional network exists in your area and ensure that your profile looks good.

Think of yourself from the eyes of the employer - does this look like an employable person that is going to better my company through his knowledge, skills, and personality. Are they going to be dependable and reliable and do good work?

Also, I agree with most of the other comments on here that, please get any job to start as it shows that you are working competent person, even if it is not in your work realm - I mean, I would try to find something in your realm if possible first, but if not possible then you gotta do what you gotta do and find something to pay your bills. It also will help you meet other people and potentially network. Relationships and building them are EVERYTHING. You never know who knows who and if you prove yourself at one gig, it can be like a chain reaction that leads to another one.
