How do you keep going after 16 rejections? (Wichita)

I have been out of work for 24 weeks and this week has been the hardest. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I do not want to burden my family. Did it pass?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
