Applied for new opportunities after challenging job transition and personal struggles

I recently faced an incredibly challenging situation after being advised to resign from my job at a conglomerate company where I had worked for 1 year and 9 months. I was a scholarship recipient, and the company funded my Economics degree, binding me to them for two years. I started in the Strategy and Sustainability Department, which I enjoyed, but transitioned to a data analyst role in August 2025 due to my passion for data and machine learning. Unfortunately, the transition was chaotic, with two bosses and overwhelming pressure, leading to significant stress and mental health issues. Earlier this year, my father fell seriously ill, and I took emergency leave to care for him, which added to my stress. Feeling overwhelmed, I decided to resign in late May. My manager accepted my resignation, but the CEO of the Foundation offered me a three-month sabbatical to focus on my family, which I accepted. However, upon returning, I learned that my position had been filled, and I was advised to resign again. I complied, but the company demanded I pay back the remaining bond amount, which was devastating since I had been without salary for three months. I'm now struggling financially, trying to cut expenses and surviving on minimal food while applying for over 100 jobs. I'm feeling lost and anxious about my future. If anyone has been in a similar situation, I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to move forward.
