I am seriously running out of options. Where do I go next?

The tech job market has been decimated, especially for software engineers and web app developers. I have worked in this line of work since 2020. I was terminated in July, and navigating through this job market that has already experienced near half-a-million layoffs over the past 2 years has been a nightmare.

I don't know where to go next or what to pursue. I have a criminal record and a previous revocation of my EMT license, so healthcare is likely out. I know it is going to be near-impossible to regain my EMT license. Law enforcement is out because I have an extensive history of involuntary hospitalizations and cannot possess a firearm.

I have no idea what other types of roles I would be passionate for.

Right now, I feel almost like a pauper. Well... that is an exaggeration, but I am losing money fast.

I am seriously running out of options. Where do I go next?
