Advice for the job search: make it known to your dev friends that you're searching for work. Networking will yield a higher success rate than just sending out resumes blindly. Same goes for attending meetups in a technology that interests you--sometimes the meetups are sponsored by companies that are hiring.

Otherwise, good luck bud--I remember this feeling too. It's terrible, but my friends and family really helped me through it. All the best for you.
