How do you keep going after 12 rejections? after 12 years as a payroll clerk

I sent 12 applications and heard nothing back, and I am running low on energy. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I do not want to burden my family. Did it pass?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 2 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I stopped looking at job sites after dinner. Evenings became mine again.
