This is where support from friends and family is really important.

As for when you meet new people, just tell them you are taking a break/in between jobs. Believe me, I have friends who actually quit well paying jobs (think lawyers) just because they wanted to take a break and think about what they truly want to do so it’s not uncommon.
But don’t you just feel so drain out after 18 months of searching for a job ? That kind of motivation...is needed badly haha
