Jobless, trouble sleeping

This is likely gonna be a rant/dump post. My family moved to Florida around 8 months ago and I got a job working at a fast food restaurant, disliked it, and quit before I went on a trip to see friends and family. I haven't been able to find a job since. I've made several applications to both remote and local jobs trying to get one but they barely respond to me.

My family moved to Florida around 8 months ago and I got a job working at a fast food restaurant, disliked it, and quit before I went on a trip to see friends and family. I haven't been able to find a job since. I've made several applications to both remote and local jobs trying to get one but they barely respond to me.

There's a couple jobs I've applied to lately that I hope get back to me, but at this point I am very low on money to the point its starting to worry me. I am living with family, and I'm sure they'd be okay with helping me with the few bills I currently have to pay, but I know I'm gonna feel guilty for asking. When it gets to before bed (now almost 1:30 am) I'm left trying to distract myself rather than going to sleep because my anxiety is going up.

What's worse is I remember hearing about the “job shortage” not long after coming here, yet I barely get responses to my applications at all. I just want a job at this point, with the one stipulation being not fast food because the gloves make my hands feel suffocated and I hate the grease getting on my glasses.

Advice is appreciated. I think I'm still new to “properly” applying to places.
