Three months of job applications with no responses: Seeking new strategies and support

It's been three months since I started applying for jobs, and I've yet to hear back from any employers. I've made adjustments to my resume and even tried changing my address to appear more local, but nothing seems to work. My situation is becoming increasingly dire; I'm currently homeless and staying in hotels, accumulating debt, and I won't have a car by the end of August. The lack of responses to my job applications is intensifying my anxiety. I'm working on connecting with a mental health professional for support, but the waitlists are long. I feel overwhelmed and am struggling to keep my spirits up. I've been considering alternative approaches like in-person drop-offs, temp agencies, and reaching out to local resources like shelters and mutual aid groups. I’ve heard that networking can be crucial, so I'm trying to engage more on platforms like LinkedIn and attending job fairs to meet potential employers. It’s frustrating to see so many applications go unanswered, and I’m just trying to find a way to keep pushing forward.
