Unemployment ran out before I found work after 5 years as a graphic designer

My unemployment benefits end in 21 weeks and I have not found work as a graphic designer. I am in Atlanta, in case local advice matters. I wonder about extended programmes or help from local agencies. What did you do after benefits ran out?

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.
