Feeling discouraged in this job market

I've been following this sub for a while and I'm really glad to see people saying no to positions that take advantage of them and whatnot. I do, however, see a lot of posts saying “there are so many jobs that are better than that”, “there are so many wfh jobs, why take one that doesn't offer that?” etc. I've been searching for a job for about 6 months now. I have a disability that would make it much easier for me to manage if I could wfh but at this stage, I'm so desperate, I'm applying to anything as long as it doesn't require me to be on me feet for long periods of time. Nothing. Zip. Not one interview. I've networked on LinkedIn, I've gotten advice on my resume from half a dozen experts…. Just a vast wasteland and rising rising rising debt. Why is this so hard…

I've networked on LinkedIn, I've gotten advice on my resume from half a dozen experts…. Just a vast wasteland and rising rising rising debt.

Why is this so hard if there are so many jobs out there???

Sorry to bitch, I'm just do disheartened and so miserable. I feel like I'm letting my family down.

Thanks for listening.
